Article
Full-text available
Distribution and change of freshwater resources is often simulated with global hydrological models. However, owing to process representation limitations and forcing data uncertainties, these model simulations have shortcomings. Combining them with observations via data assimilation, for example, with data from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Exper...
Article
Full-text available
Global hydrological models enhance our understanding of the Earth system and support the sustainable management of water, food and energy in a globalized world. They integrate process knowledge with a multitude of model input data (e.g., precipitation, soil properties, and the location and extent of surface waterbodies) to describe the state of the...
Article
Full-text available
We propose a novel approach to classify sets of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) permanent stations as benchmarks for hydrogeodesy. Benchmarks are trusted sets of GNSS stations whose displacements are classified as significantly and positively correlated with hydrospheric changes and identified in a three temporal‐scales: short‐term, seaso...

Full-text available
We describe the new global land water storage data set GLWS2.0, which contains total water storage anomalies (TWSA) over the global land except for Greenland and Antarctica with a spatial resolution of 0.5\(^\circ \), covering the time frame 2003 to 2019 without gaps, and including monthly uncertainty quantification. GLWS2.0 was derived by assimila...

Global hydrological models enhance our understanding of the Earth system and support the sustainable management of water, food and energy in a globalized world. They integrate process knowledge with a multitude of model input data (e.g., precipitation, land cover and soil properties and location and extent of surface water bodies) that describe the...

The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission will vastly expand measurements of global rivers, providing critical new data sets for both gaged and ungaged basins. SWOT discharge products (available approximately 1 year after launch) will provide discharge for all river that reaches wider than 100 m. In this paper, we describe how SWOT disc...

We describe the new global land water storage data set GLWS2.0, which contains total water storage anomalies (TWSA) over the global land except for Greenland and Antarctica with a spatial resolution of 0.5{\deg}, covering the time frame 2003 to 2019 without gaps, and including uncertainty quantification. GLWS2.0 was derived by assimilating monthly...
Article
The availability of freshwater is highly influenced by climate change, extreme climate events and by anthropogenic use. Countries where a large part of the population depends on the agricultural sector, such as South Africa, are strongly affected by changes in climate, which emphasizes that water is an essential source for food production and drink...

Observations of changes in terrestrial water storage (TWS) obtained from the satellite mission GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) have frequently been used for water cycle studies and for the improvement of hydrological models by means of calibration and data assimilation. However, due to a low spatial resolution of the gravity field m...

Full-text available
The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission ended its operation in October 2017 and the GRACE Follow-On mission was launched only in May 2018, leading to approximately one year of data gap. Given that GRACE-type observations are exclusively providing direct estimates of Total Water Storage Change (TWSC), it would be very important t...
Poster
To study how the water cycle changes over time, satellite and airborne remote sensing missions are typically employed. Over the last 40 years of satellite missions, the measurement of true water inventories stored in sea and land ice within the cryosphere have been significantly hindered by uncertainties introduced by snow cover. Being able to dete...
