A New Fully-Focused SAR Altimetry Processor in the ESA G-POD SARvatore Family: Validation and Applications on Inland Waters

Satellite altimetry has successfully been applied to derive water level time series over lakes and rivers for many years. In the last decade major advancement within the field have been achieved. The SAR altimetry era, initiated with the launch of CryoSat-2, has made it possible to measure much smaller targets more accurately. The standard 20 Hz...

Measurements and Observations in the XXI century (MOXXI): innovation and multi-disciplinarity to sense the hydrological cycle

To promote the advancement of novel observation techniques that may lead to new sources of information to help better understand the hydrological cycle, the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (IAHS) established the Measurements and Observations in the XXI century (MOXXI) Working Group in July 2013. The group comprises a...
