Global Estimate of Reservoir Hydropower Storage Potential Based on SWOT Observations

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Hydropower is pivotal to the global transition toward carbon‐neutral energy, yet its actual potential remains constrained by uncertainties. Global assessments have traditionally relied on static metrics, such as dam height, which obscure the dynamic water fluctuations that govern operational reliability.
