Igor Appel IMSG/NOAA, Camp Spring, USA igor.appel@noaa.gov   Abstract Satellite observations present the major source of information for the global monitoring of snow.  The snow maps are the longest satellite-derived dataset though they do not completely satisfy the needs of climate studies.  Combined application of AVHRR, MODIS, METOP, and VIIRS observations offers a potential way […]

Marian Muste 1, Radu Drobot 2, Mariana Mocanu 2 1 University of Iowa, USA 2 Technical University of Civil Engineering from Bucharest, Romania Abstract: The paper reviews first the emerging frameworks for watershed science and management.

2010-236 AN ADVANCED IRRIGATION ADVISORY PROGRAMMarshall English 11 Biological and Ecological Engineering Dept., Oregon State University, Corvallis, USA Abstract:Irrigation management advisory services must achieve significant advances in analytical capabilities in the next decade or two. Increasingly critical water shortages are forcing adoption of deficit irrigation strategies that require precise control of soil water conditions in […]

2010-011  UNCERTAINTY OF SATELLITE ESTIMATES FOR HYDROLOGIC APPLICATIONSAmir AghaKouchakUniversity of Louisiana at Lafayette,USA Abstract: Hydrological and climate studies have long relied on rain gauge measurements. While rain gauge measurements do not provide reasonable areal representation of rainfall, remotely sensed precipitation estimates offer much higher spatial resolution. Recent advances in the field of remote sensing have […]
