Effective water management requires tracking the inflow, outflow, quantity and quality of ground-water and surface water, much like balancing a bank account. Currently, networks of ground-based instruments measure these in individual locations, while airborne and satellite sensors measure them over larger areas. Recent technological innovations offer unprecedented possibilities to integrate space, air, and land observations to advance water science and guide management decisions. This book concludes that in order to realize the potential of integrated data, agencies, universities, and the private sector must work together to develop new kinds of sensors, test them in field studies, and help users to apply this information to real problems"--Publisher. 000389180 650_0 $$aWater quality$$xMeasurement$$zUnited States. 000389180 650_0 $$aEnvironmental monitoring$$zUnited States$$xData processing. 000389180 650_0 $$aData warehousing$$zUnited States. 000389180 650_0 $$aDatabase management$$zUnited States. 000389180 650_0 $$aStream measurements$$zUnited States. 000389180 650_0 $$aArtificial satellites in earth sciences$$zUnited States. 000389180 650_0 $$aArtificial satellites in oceanography$$zUnited States. 000389180 650_0 $$aEarth sciences$$xRemote sensing. 000389180 655_7 $$aElectronic books.$$2lcsh 000389180 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central Academic Complete 000389180 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/usiricelib/Doc?id=10225185$$zOnline Access 000389180 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:389180$$pGLOBAL_SET 000389180 980__ $$aEBOOK 000389180 980__ $$aBIB 000389180 982__ $$aEbook 000389180 983__ $$aOnline
