Their incidence has increased in recent decades, a trend set to continue with ongoing climate change. Adaptation and mitigation measures require accurate detection, monitoring, and forecasting, much of which comes from remote sensing technologies.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRemote Sensing of Water-Related Hazards\u003c/i\u003e takes an interdisciplinary approach, presenting recent advances in the available data, sensors, models, and indicators developed for monitoring and prediction.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVolume highlights include:\u003c/b\u003e\u003c/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProgress in remote sensing of precipitation, storms, and tornados\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDifferent techniques for flood mapping, forecasting, and early warning\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntegrated approach for predicting flood and landslide cascading hazards\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSatellite monitoring of water cycle variation, water scarcity, and drought conditions\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMulti-indicator and multi-sensor approaches for quantifying drought impacts\u003c/li\u003e \u003c/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe American Geophysical Union promotes discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity.
