Satellite Gravimetry Applied to Drought Monitoring
11.1 INTRODUCTION Near-surface wetness conditions change rapidly with the weather, which limits their usefulness as drought indicators. Deeper stores of water, including root-zone soil wetness and groundwater, portend longer-term weather trends and climate variations ; thus, they are well suited for quantifying droughts. However, the existing in situ networks for monitoring these variables suff...
متن کاملRecent La Plata basin drought conditions observed by satellite gravimetry
[1] The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) provides quantitative measures of terrestrial water storage (TWS) change. GRACE data show a significant decrease in TWS in the lower (southern) La Plata river basin of South America over the period 2002–2009, consistent with recognized drought conditions in the region. GRACE data reveal a detailed picture of temporal and spatial evolution ...
متن کاملUsing Satellite Images for Drought Monitoring: a Knowledge Discovery Approach
The main objective of this research was to develop a new concept and approach to extracting knowledge from satellite imageries for near real-time drought monitoring in areas of Ethiopia that are experiencing food insecurity. The near real-time data downloaded from the Atlantic Bird satellite were used to produce the drought spatial distribution. Our results showed that approximately 40% of the ...
متن کاملMonitoring of land subsidence due to overexploitation of groundwater using PS-InSAR in the region in hamadan proviance, Iran
Land subsidence is one of the environmental hazards that has been less well-regarded by human societies due to lower human casualties. However, the earth subsidence causes irreparable damage to the urban areas and adjacent plains over time. In this study, Permanent Scatterer (PS) method has been used to monitor land subsidence in the region in hamadan proviance and its adjacent plains in west o...
متن کاملGRACE satellite monitoring of large depletion in water storage in response to the 2011 drought in Texas
[1] Texas experienced the most extreme one-year drought on record in 2011 with precipitation at 40% of long-term mean and agricultural losses of ~$7.6 billion. We assess the value of Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite-derived total water storage (TWS) change as an alternative remote sensing-based drought indicator, independent of traditional drought indicators based on in...
