Dear colleagues, We would like to bring your attention to our session, entitled *Multi-source remote sensing of rivers, lakes, reservoirs and wetlands*, which is shaping up to be an interesting mix of expertise and perspectives in remote sensing and hydrology.
Link to the session: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/54309 Abstract submission portal: https://fallmeeting.agu.org/2018/abstract-submissions/ Please see below for more information on the session, and note that abstracts are due *this Wednesday, August 1st*. We look forward to seeing you at AGU2018!

The integration of long-term satellite data collected by multiple optical and microwave sensors is facilitating a new understanding of the variability of surface water processes and their responses to long-term changes from local to regional scales. Remotely sensed surface water data can also help improve hydrologic, hydraulic and Earth System Models, particularly in ungauged basins. For this session, we solicit abstracts that employ multi-source remotely sensed data to study surface water processes (e.g., river discharge, lake volume variation, temperature and eutrophication), with a focus on the roles of surface water bodies and wetlands in water management, hydrological cycles, ecosystem services and land-atmosphere interactions. Included in this scope is the development of novel applications in surface water remote sensing across sensors and scales and the integration of in situ data and hydrologic models. https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/54309 Primary Convener Jérôme Benveniste Primary Email: jerome.benveni...@esa.int Affiliation: European Space Agency/ESA-ESRIN Frascati (Italy) Convener Huilin Gao Primary Email: h...@civil.tamu.edu Affiliation: Texas A&M University College Station TX 77845-3136 (United States) Convener Ben DeVries Primary Email: b...@umd.edu Affiliation: University of Maryland College Park Department of Geographical Sciences College Park MD (United States) Convener Mirela G Tulbure Primary Email: mirela.tulb...@unsw.edu.au Affiliation: University of New South Wales School of Biological, Earth & Environmental Science Sydney NSW (Australia) -- Ben DeVries PhD Assistant Research Professor Department of Geographical Sciences University of Maryland
