1 Hydrosphere Continental Hydrology Surface water (river, lakes, runoff) Groundwater Soil moisture Wetlands Snow Oceans Water vapor (Atmosphere) Icecaps/glaciers (Cryosphere)

2 UNAVCO’s Hydrosphere Hydrosphere Geodesy GPS InSAR Continental Hydrology Altimetry Gravity (GRACE) Optical observations Oceans Water vapor Icecaps/glaciers

3 Temporal and spatial scales Notes: 1) GPS networks can measure hydrological- induced signals with length scale larger than the network’s station spacing, typically ~10-50 km. 2) GRACE and GPS networks measure groundwater extraction at large length scales (> 200 km), as they measure the integration of many short scale groundwater movements. Hydrological processes (ellipses) Geodetic measurements (squares). Distance Time
