RESERVOIR project convening session; HS8.2.5 "Remote sensing applications to analyse, monitor and model the impacts due to groundwater extraction" at the EGU General Assembly 2024

RESERVOIR project is delighted to bring your attention to session HS8.2.5 " Remote sensing applications to analyse, monitor and model the impacts due to groundwater extraction" (Conveners: Claudia Meisina, Alper Elci, Guadalupe Bru, María Navarro-Hernández, Yueting Li) programmed at the EGU General Assembly 2024 in Vienna - Austria (April 14 to 19, https://www.egu24.eu/).
 The session aims to collect contributions on the state of the art and perspectives on the use of Remote sensing products in the framework of the impacts of groundwater extraction (please, find more details at https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU24/session/48391). The main topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

• Identification of the impacts of groundwater overexploitation through the use of Remote Sensing data (in particular, InSAR data) , e.g. mapping, monitoring, and predicting ground deformation due to groundwater extraction;
• Innovative methodologies for the hydrogeological characterisation of large-scale overexploited aquifer systems using satellite-based Remote Sensing products (e.g. groundwater storage);
• Development of novel methods for the interpretation of RS products using Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques;
• Novel methods for unraveling processes of ground movements not related to groundwater extraction (e.g., shallow natural compaction, drainage of urban areas and farmlands, new urbanizations, and hydrocarbon production).
• Assimilation of Remote Sensing data into groundwater flow modelling and geomechanical modelling of aquifer systems to simulate future scenarios as a constraint to limit groundwater withdrawal;
• Past and present experiences of integrating Remote Sensing analysis outcomes into management plans for aquifer systems.

 
With this in mind, you may consider submitting an abstract by January 10, 2024, 13:00 CET (https://www.egu24.eu/programme/how_to_submit.html).

 
We look forward to your participation in the next year's EGU.
