Remote sensing of ocean colour and water quality uses satellite and airborne sensors to measure the spectral characteristics of sunlight scattered by the water column. By quantifying water-leaving ...

Remote sensing has made it easier for scientists to monitor rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. Will it help us be smarter about how we manage them? The Congo River is the world’s second-largest river ...

Satellite remote sensing has transformed the monitoring of surface water by providing consistent, synoptic observations of lakes, reservoirs, rivers and wetlands at regional to global scales.

Sustainable water management is an increasing concern in arid regions around the world, and scientists and regulators are turning to remote sensing tools like OpenET to help track and manage water ...
