BookDOI

Satellite rainfall applications for surface hydrology

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a practical guide to a Space-Time Stochastic Error Model for Simulation of High-Resolution Satellite Rainfall Data, which is used in real-time decision support systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

A first approach to global runoff simulation using satellite rainfall estimation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report a ballpark assessment of quasi-global runoff computed by incorporating satellite rainfall data and other remote sensing products in a relatively simple rainfall-runoff simulation approach: the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) runoff Curve Number (CN) method.
Journal ArticleDOI

An intercomparison of remote sensing river discharge estimation algorithms from measurements of river height, width, and slope

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the possibility of estimating discharge in ungauged rivers using synthetic, daily "remote sensing" measurements derived from hydraulic models corrupted with minimal observational errors, and found at least one algorithm able to estimate instantaneous discharge to within 35% relative root-mean-squared error (RRMSE) on 14/16 nonbraided rivers despite out-ofbank flows, multichannel planforms, and backwater effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Influence of Large Dams on Surrounding Climate and Precipitation Patterns

TL;DR: In this article, the spatial gradients of atmospheric variables related to precipitation formation are identified around the reservoir shoreline for 92 large dams of North America, and the authors report that large dams influence local climate most in Mediterranean, arid and semi-arid climates, while for humid climates the influence is least.
