Anticipated Improvements to River Surface Elevation Profiles From the Surface Water and Ocean Topography Mission

Existing publicly available digital elevation models (DEMs) provide global-scale data but are often not precise enough for studying processes that depend on small-scale topographic features in rivers. For example, slope breaks and knickpoints in rivers can be important in understanding tectonic proc...
