Abstract

The Land Information System (LIS) is a multiscale hydrologic modeling and data assimilation framework that integrates the use of satellite and ground-based observational data products with advanced land-surface modeling tools to aid several application areas, including water resources management, numerical weather prediction, agricultural management, air quality, and military mobility assessment.
