Forward: Earth Observation and Water Cycle Science: Towards a Multimission Observation Strategy
Abstract
This paper summarises the main results and conclusions of the Earth observation for Water Cycle Science Conference organised by ESA, GEWEX, EGU and ISPRS in Frascati from November 18 until 20 2009. The conference contributed to the EGU Topical Conferences on Hydrological Science being also the first event of the "Leonardo Conference Series on the Hydrological Cycle" of the European Geosciences Union (EGU). It was hosted at the ESRIN facilities of the European Space Agency and involved almost 200 scientists from more than 30 countries. The conference addressed the latest advances and scientific developments in the use of Earth observation technology to observe, monitor and forecast the different components and processes governing the water cycle and reviewed the related applications.
