Remote sensing provides a means of observing hydrological state variables over large areas. The ones which we will consider in this paper are land surface temperature from thermal infrared data, surface soil moisture from passive microwave data, snow cover using both visible and microwave data, wate

With the successful launch of the first Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS-1 or Landsat-1) on 23 July 1972, scientists and engineers gained a valuable new source of space-based observations for studying hydrologic systems and processes. Previously hampered by a lack of detailed spatial infor
## Abstract The emergence of regional and global satelliteβbased rainfall products with high spatial and temporal resolution has opened up new largeβscale hydrological applications in dataβsparse or ungauged catchments. Particularly, distributed hydrological models can benefit from the good spatial
## Abstract There is a growing awareness that water will be one of the most critical natural resources and that there is a need for better management of the limited water resources. This paper reports on a study of a waterβscarce river basin in western Turkey. Hydrological analyses, emphasizing wat
Most hydrologists are aware of and perhaps intrigued by remote sensing, but very few are actual users of the data and almost none have the necessary technical background to easily use remote sensing. There are a number of reasons for this, but perhaps the most important reason is that remote sensing
