Estimation of River Discharge Solely from Remote-Sensing Derived Data: An Initial Study Over the Yangtze River
A novel approach has been developed to estimating river discharge solely using satellite-derived parameters. The temporal river width observations from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), made at two stream segments a distance apart, are plotted to identify the time lag. The river...
