Thesis deals with improving the quantification of hydrological fluxes, particularly evapotranspiration, for continuously or seasonally water-stressed regions; presents an integrated method, which combines remote sensing based evapotranspiration and precipitation estimates with available ground data to establish each component of the water balance; presents a regional framework for an integrated and spatio- temporally distributed assessment of human-induced trends in the hydrology and the associated ecological health of a semi-arid basin where both human activities (i.e. agriculture) and natural ecosystems are highly groundwater- dependent; describes an RS-based and quantitative framework for assessing the limits and variations of sustainable water resources and the ecological water ...
