Remote sensing for surface water hydrology
• RS applications for assessment of hydrometeorological states and fluxes– Soil moisture, snow cover, snow water equivalent,
evapotranspiration, vegetation cover and water content, land surface energy balance, water quality
• The above parameterize numerous physical, conceptual, and empirical models of surface water dynamics, such as runoff, infiltration, and streamflow
• Can runoff/streamflow be directly observed and quantified with RS?
Not with any current technology

Data and Methodology
• Remote Sensing DataMODIS NASA’s Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer - Surface temperature (LST)- Albedo- Vegetation state
- NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index)- EVI (Enhanced Vegetation Index)- User derived MSI (Moisture Stress Index) and others
AMSR-E Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer - Soil Moisture (resolution issues?)- Vegetation water content and roughness

General methodology
• MODIS time-series landscape biophysicals – High temporal resolution (daily but composited as 8 and 16 day
products)– Moderate spatial resolution (0.25 - 1km2 pixel dim)
• NEXRAD radar (Stage III, MPE) precipitation estimates• USGS gauged streamflow records

NEXRAD MPE radar estimate of hourly precipitation rate for 4 July 2006 (21:00 GMT) for Sandies Creek watershed and surrounding region. Rates ranged from 0.0 mm/hr (black pixel) to 14.6 mm/hr (white pixel) for cells within the watershed

Daytime LST (8 day composite) for the Sandies Creek watershed for the period 18 - 25 February 2002. Mean temperatures for this period ranged from 24.9 C (dark pixels) to 29.3 C (light pixels).

NDVI (16 day composite) image of the Sandies Creek watershed for the period 18 February – 6 March 2002. Dark-toned and light-toned pixels represent low and high NDVI values (stressed vegetation vs healthy), respectively.

How is LST coupled to soil moisture (or vice versa)
• Heat flux from the earth’s surface– Radiative flux (long wave thermal 9-13 μm)– Sensible heat flux (convection and conduction)– Latent heat flux (phase change)
• Is soil surface emissivity affected by soil moisture? would this affect radiative, sensible, or latent heat loss?
• Would a loss or gain of near-surface soil moisture likely impact sensible or latent heat flux?
