Abstract
Accurate knowledge of spatial and temporal land surface storages and fluxes are essential for addressing a wide range of important, socially relevant science, education, application and management issues. Improved estimates of land surface conditions are directly applicable to agriculture, ecology, civil engineering, water resources management, rainfall-runoff prediction, atmospheric process studies, climate and weather prediction, and disaster management (Houser et al. 2004).
