Combining satellite radar altimetry, SAR surface soil moisture and GRACE total storage changes for hydrological model calibration in a large poorly gauged catchment [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2011 The availability of data is a major challenge for hydrological modelling in large parts of the world. Remote sensing data can be exploited to improve models of ungauged or poorly gauged catchments.

Real-time remote sensing driven river basin modeling using radar altimetry [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2011 Many river basins have a weak in-situ hydrometeorological monitoring infrastructure. However, water resources practitioners depend on reliable hydrological models for management purposes. Remote sensing (RS) data have been recognized as an alternative to

Satellite altimetry for Indian reservoirs
Water Science and Engineering, 2021 Satellite radar altimetry has immense potential for monitoring fresh surface water resources and predicting the intra-seasonal, seasonal, and inter-annual variability of inundated surface water over large river basins.

River ice phenology and thickness from satellite altimetry: potential for ice bridge road operation and climate studies [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2021 River ice is a key component of the cryosphere. Satellite monitoring of river ice is a rapidly developing area of scientific enquiry, which has wide-ranging implications for climate, environmental and socioeconomic applications.

River monitoring from satellite radar altimetry in the Zambezi River basin [PDF]
, 2012 Satellite radar altimetry can be used to monitor surface water levels from space. While current and past altimetry missions were designed to study oceans, retracking the waveforms returned over land allows data to be retrieved for smaller water bodies or

Satellite Remote Sensing of the Greenland Ice Sheet Ablation Zone: A Review
Remote Sensing, 2019 The Greenland Ice Sheet is now the largest land ice contributor to global sea level rise, largely driven by increased surface meltwater runoff from the ablation zone, i.e., areas of the ice sheet where annual mass losses exceed gains.
