Hydrologic Remote Sensing : Capacity Building for Sustainability and Resilience, Hardback Book

Hydrologic Remote Sensing : Capacity Building for Sustainability and Resilience Hardback

Hardback

Description

Environmental remote sensing plays a critical role in observing key hydrological components such as precipitation, soil moisture, evapotranspiration and total water storage on a global scale.

As water security is one of the most critical issues in the world, satellite remote sensing techniques are of particular importance for emerging regions which have inadequate in-situ gauge observations.

This book reviews multiple remote sensing observations, the application of remote sensing in hydrological modeling, data assimilation and hydrological capacity building in emerging regions. •Presents an overview of the past, current and future remote sensing observations of the precipitation, soil moisture, evapotranspiration and total water storage•Reviews the various applications of remote sensing in hydrological/land surface/climate modeling and Ensemble Square Root Filter (EnSRF) data assimilation•Demonstrates techniques to help reduce devastating disasters triggered by hydrological hazards such as floods and landslides•Explains how remote sensing, modeling and data assimilation can be utilized to improve societal resilience and environmental sustainability•Shows how to create real-time flood and drought monitoring systems
