In collaboration with colleagues in India, we develop tools for seasonal hydrological forecast and water resource assessment across the country. These tools are based on the integration of satellite-derived datasets with meteorological and hydrological models. They have been applied to drought monitoring and forecast systems and to estimates of water demand for irrigation.
