This area of research concerns diagnosis of the exchanges of energy and water
between the land and atmosphere and the ocean and quantifying the partitioning
of water on the land among evaporation, surface flooding, surface reservoirs,
soil moisture, runoff, deep storage and river discharge. This work involves
both the development of new analysis techniques for satellite remote sensing of
land surface properties and water and of new approaches for combining
information from many different kinds of measurements to quantify water
variations on land from the local to the global scale.
