Global GRACE data assimilation for groundwater and drought monitoring: Advances and challenges

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assimilated a state-of-the-art terrestrial water storage product derived from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite observations into NASA's Catchment land surface model (CLSM) at the global scale, with the goal of generating groundwater storage time series that are useful for drought monitoring and other applications.
