Monitoring Reservoir Storage Using SWOT Satellite Observations and a Reservoir Operation Model
Abstract Reservoirs play a critical role in water management, yet comprehensive and real‐time observations of reservoir storage remain limited, especially outside the U.S. Observations of two reservoir‐related attributes, Water Surface Elevation (WSE) and Surface Area (SA), which can be used to calculate reservoir storage change, are often ...

Two orders of wall‐to‐wall geographic data
Short Abstract The use of the term ‘wall‐to‐wall’ to describe geographically extensive data without any singular definition in the remote sensing and geographically related analysis. This work presents an assessment of the application of the term in the scientific literature. Abstract From personal observations of recent published works, the term “wall‐
