This review surveys current and emerging drought monitoring approaches using satellite
remote sensing observations from climatological and ecosystem perspectives. We argue …

Abstract In the western United States, the seasonal phase of snow storage bridges between
winter‐dominant precipitation and summer‐dominant water demand. The critical role of …

Snow cover and its melt dominate regional climate and water resources in many of the
world's mountainous regions. Snowmelt timing and magnitude in mountains are controlled …

Declining mountain snowpack and earlier snowmelt across the western United States has
implications for downstream communities. We present a possible mechanism linking …

The first issue of WRR appeared eight years after the launch of Sputnik, but by WRR's 25th
anniversary, only seven papers that used remote sensing had appeared. Over the journal's …

Groundwater recharge indicates the existence of renewable groundwater resources and is
therefore an important component in sustainability studies. However, recharge is also one of …

Mountains are important sources of freshwater for the adjacent lowlands. In view of
increasingly scarce freshwater resources, this contribution should be clarified. While earlier …

Mountains are essential sources of freshwater for our world, but their role in global water
resources could well be significantly altered by climate change. How well do we understand …

Snow plays a fundamental role in global water resources, climate, and biogeochemical
processes; however, no global snow drought assessments currently exist. Changes in the …
