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.
