Recent Advances and Future Implications of Remote Sensing for Hydrologic Modeling

Remote sensing has begun to have an impact on applied hydrology as well as hydrologic research. Because remote sensing is basically spatial information it is providing a new form of data that hydrologists are not accustomed to working with. Remote sensing can also provide new types of information, such as the microwave measurements of soil moisture, that are not available via other means. This chapter reviews applications of remote sensing to hydrology and current research thrusts, and looks forward to new sensors and concepts that may be available in the near future.
