Special Issue "Remote Sensing of Water Cycle ECVs and their Applications"

Special Issue banner

The focus of this Remote Sensing of the Water Cycle Special Issue is on remote sensing-related Essential Climate Variable - Climate Data Records (ECV-CDRs) of all water cycle components and their applications. Submitted manuscripts will preferably report scientific advances in the following topics, but other topics related to the scope of the SI will also be considered:

  • New water cycle CDRs: development and generation procedures;
  • Validation, capability assessment, and intercomparisons of water cycle CDRs;
  • CDR exploitation in long-term analyses: regional climatology, variability and trends, extreme event projections;
  • Droughts and floods: climatology and climatic driver identification;
  • Capability of CDRs to capture extremes;
  • Water cycle CDR exploitation in climate services for societal benefits;
  • Exploratory studies of the connections among the water cycle, agriculture and food, public health, and energy.

Deadline for manuscript submissions has been postponed: 31 March 2021
