The two principal topics of this workshop were hydrological modelling and microwave radiometry. The hydrologic models session concentrated on applications of GOES, NOAA, and Landsat data in various hydrologic watershed models and contained discussion on means of increasing the utility of satellites for hydrologic modellers. The microwave hydrology session focused on promising applications and the benefits of this method of data collection for monitoring, modelling and forecasting at field and basin scales. The publication includes the texts of all session presentations and related workshops. A list of participants concludes the proceedings.

Presents papers from a workshop on remote sensing and hydrology. Topics of papers include glacier snow line mapping, derivation of lake areas and elevations, estimating surface evaporation, hydrological modelling, estimation of evapotranspiration, rainfall estimation, satellite and radar techniques, vegetation/hydrologic flux relationships, soil moisture measurement, soil classification, flood management applications, and sensing of surface energy heat flux.
