Groundwater storage changes in arctic permafrost watersheds from GRACE and in situ measurements
The Arctic permafrost regions make up the largest area component of the cryosphere. Observations from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission offer to provide a greater understanding of changes in water mass within permafrost regions. We investigate a GRACE monthly time series, snow water equivalent from the special scanning microwave imager (SSM/I), vegetation water content...
متن کاملAlaskan Permafrost Groundwater Storage Changes Derived from GRACE and Ground Measurements
The Arctic is in transition from climate-driven thawing of permafrost. We investigate satellite-derived water equivalent mass changes, snow water equivalent with in situ measurements of runoff and ground-survey derived geoid models from 1999 through 2009. The Alaskan Arctic coastal plain groundwater storage (including wetland bog, thaw pond and lake) is increasing by 1.15 ± 0.65 km 3 /a (area-a...
متن کاملPredicting groundwater level changes using GRACE data
[1] The purpose of this work is to investigate the feasibility of downscaling Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite data for predicting groundwater level changes and, thus, enhancing current capability for sustainable water resources management. In many parts of the world, water management decisions are traditionally informed by in situ observation networks which, unfortunat...
متن کاملEstimating Groundwater Storage Changes in the Western Kansas Using Grace Data
The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) delivers monthly gravity fields since it was launched in March 2002, which provides a new way to monitor the groundwater storage variations for large regions. In this study, we attempt to apply the GRACE data combined with estimated soil moisture based on the water balance approach to estimate monthly groundwater changes in the western Kansas ...
متن کاملGround referencing GRACE satellite estimates of groundwater storage changes in the California Central Valley, USA
[1] There is increasing interest in using Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite data to remotely monitor groundwater storage variations; however, comparisons with ground-based well data are limited but necessary to validate satellite data processing, especially when the study area is close to or below the GRACE footprint. The Central Valley is a heavily irrigated region with...
