Physics-Based Method Sharpens Satellite River Height Measurements

Original: Physics-Based Decomposition Improves River Altimetry

Researchers have introduced a physics-based decomposition technique that improves the accuracy of satellite river altimetry, allowing better measurement of river surface heights from space. The approach is reported in coverage by AZoCleantech and EurekAlert!, and is being discussed as a way to enhance water-level monitoring for hydrology, flood forecasting and water resource management where in-situ gauges are sparse or absent.

Why now: Newly published research on a method that improves satellite monitoring of rivers has drawn attention from science and environmental news outlets.
