Session Title Remote Sensing In Hydrology
Main Convener Prof. Dawei Han (University of Bristol, United Kingdom)
Co-convener(s) Prof. Jeanne Jinhui Huang (Nankai University, China)
Session Description Remote sensing is the process of inferring surface parameters from measurements of the upwelling electromagnetic radiation from the land surface. Remote sensing in hydrology provides an effective means of observing the variables relevant to hydrological processes. Currently, there is a significant increase in the availability of remote sensing data by various government agencies and other organisations to cover precipitation, snow, soil moisture, land use/land cover, evapotranspiration, land surface temperature etc. However, remote sensing data are still underused in hydrology. This session is to invite abstracts addressing remote sensing in hydrology with applications in hydrological processes, ungauged catchment, urban hydrology, climate and environmental changes, data fusion and assimilation, hydrological hazards, ecosystems, etc.
