Developing efficient multi-sensor Data Assimilation frameworks for integrating Earth ObservatioN Satellite data into Land Surface Models (DANSk-LSM)

The main goal of DANSk-LSM is to develop and demonstrate accurate and efficient, physically and mathematically consistent Data Assimilation (DA) systems that robustly integrate synergistically and complementary available satellite data with the state-of-the-art of hydrological models. Thus, we will build the capacity for cutting-edge next generation high-resolution global hydrological early warning systems that are open-access. DANSk-LSM uniquely integrates multi-sensor geodetic and remotely sensed Earth Observation (EO) data, implements innovative DA and calibration frameworks, and has unprecedented high spatial-temporal resolution.
