"Estimating and monitoring water budgets within a river basin is required for sustainable management of water resources and flooding within watersheds."

Rivers are a major source of fresh water. They support aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, provide transportation, generate hydropower, and when treated, provide drinking and agricultural water. Estimating and monitoring water budgets within a river basin is required for sustainable management of water resources and flooding within watersheds. This advanced-level webinar series focuses on the use of NASA Earth observations and Earth system-modeled data for estimating water budgets in river basins. This advanced webinar includes lectures and hands-on exercises for learners to estimate water budgets for a given river basin. 

Attendees who have not completed the Fundamentals of Remote Sensing may not be prepared for the pace of the training.

This training was created by NASA's Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET). ARSET is a part of NASA's Applied Science's Capacity Building Program. Learn more about ARSET HERE.
