Hydrology Paper of the Day @geoallen.bsky.social on how SWOT remote sensing data can characterize flow waves generated by water inputs to a river: length estimation from a single SWOT observation; examples from three rivers and comparisons with flow gauges; and noise, errors, biases and filtering.

Hydrologists! Ever heard of a Spatial Hydrograph? Our new paper in @agu.org GRL shows that the SWOT satellite can capture spatial flow waves propagating down rivers—something previously only only observable at river gauges: doi.org/10.1029/2024...
