The ability to map floods from satellites has been known for over 40 years. Early images of
floods were rather difficult to obtain, and flood map** from satellites was thus rather …

This review paper reports on the state-of-the-art concerning observations of surface winds,
waves, and currents from space and their use for scientific research and subsequent …

Abstract Despite having approximately 100,000 lakes, Sweden has limited continuous
gauged lake water level data. Although satellite radar altimetry (RA) has emerged as a …

More than 30 years of observations from an international suite of satellite altimeter missions
continue to provide key data enabling research discoveries and a broad spectrum of …

Improving and homogenizing time and space reference systems on Earth and, more
specifically, realizing the Terrestrial Reference Frame (TRF) with an accuracy of 1 mm and a …

With its increasing record length and subsequent reduction in influence of shorter-term
variability on measured trends, satellite altimeter measurements of sea level provide an …

River monitoring is an open issue due to many intrinsic problems of the ground monitoring
network. Over the last few decades, the role of satellite sensors in river discharge estimation …

The quantity and quality of surface water are inherently connected yet are overwhelmingly
studied separately in the field of remote sensing. Remotely observable water quantity (eg …

Extracting balanced geostrophic motions (BM) from sea surface height (SSH) observations
obtained by wide‐swath altimetry holds great significance in enhancing our understanding …

Satellite Earth observations (EO) are an accurate and reliable data source for atmospheric
and environmental science. Their increasing spatial and temporal resolution, as well as the …
