Abstract

Satellite remote sensing observations offer unique possibilities to monitor, understand and predict hydrological hazards, particularly in ungauged catchments. In this study, we use state-of-the-art multi-mission remote sensing observations to update a hydrological model of the poorly instrumented Ogooué river in Gabon. We use a conceptual rainfall-runoff model forced with satellite-based climate observations; and calibrate the model parameters using an aggregated objective function including Sentinel-3 satellite altimetry and GRACE/GRACE-FO total water storage. The model is used to evaluate flood risk in combination with Sentinel-1 water surface extent and flood occurrence maps and to simulate the potential impact of climate change on the rainfall-runoff processes in the catchment.
