"Remote Sensing in Hydrology" provides a state-of-the-art analysis of the current applications of remote sensing for all aspects of the study of water resources. Following a brief examination of the basic principles of remote sensing, the authors deal in turn with each part of the hydrological cycle, emphasizing throughout the increasing importance of quantative methodology. Each chapter closes with a section on future developments. Chapters on the use of remote sensing in the management, monitoring and quality assessment of water resources and a final chapter on future development complete the book. This book should be of interest to professional hydrologists, hydrogeologists, remote sensing scientists; managers of natural resources; and researchers in departments of geography and civil engineering.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
`Given the wide range of parameters involved in hydrology, this book achieves an admirable summary of the application of remote sensing to the subject.'
International Journal of Remote Sensing
`The book is a welcome addition to my bookshelf and I recommend it to hydrologists wanting to find out about remote sensing and practitioners of remote sensing want to find out how to apply it to hydrology.'
Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology
`...an important compilation on the state of the art, that must be at the hand of any hydrologist or hydrogeologist.'
Geological Magazine
`...an excellent summary of current knowledge in the field of remote sensing applications in hydrology.'
Hydrological Sciences Journal
`a useful book for its purpose, this review of the recent advances of remote sensing and of its earth-scale application to hydrologic sciences is much appreciated.'
Bulletin of the American Meteorologic Society
`...it is appropriate that a thorough and detached review of the progress made in the remote detection of hydrological phenomena is made available... The authors are to be congratulated... The book is essential for all those wanting to teach about or gain an understanding of the current status of Earth observation in hydrology.'
