title = "SWOT Applications for WRF-Hydro Modeling in Alaska",
abstract = "The Surface Water Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, launching next year, will provide high-spatial resolution measurements of terrestrial surface water, including global rivers with widths greater than 50-100 m. SWOT measurements are naturally suited for stream hydrology, and many previous studies have worked to quantify the impact of SWOT observations on the modeling of channel flow. This work highlights the application of SWOT for WRF-Hydro modeling in Alaska for data assimilation and model calibration to support ongoing National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Water Model development. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of using SWOT discharge estimates to calibrate WRF-Hydro in ungauged basins, and quantifies the impact of SWOT data assimilation on WRF-Hydro performance.",
