In this study, the water storage changes and its main drivers within the VRB are deeply investigated using remote sensing tools. The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite derived terrestrial water storage anomalies (TWSA) is the only tool which vertically integrates all hydrological variables, and is suitable for groundwater storage anomalies (GWSA) changes investigation. The present investigation initially uses the Generalized Three-Corned Hat approach followed by a weighted average to merge four GRACE derived TWSA. Three machine learning techniques including XGBoost, LightGBM and Random Forest are applied to downscale TWSA at a spatial resolution of 0.1°. Results showed that (i) the merged TWSA depicts the lowest uncertainty with a median of 0.94 cm. (ii) The LightGBM model yielded the highest R<sup>2</sup> (0.99) and the lowest rmse (0.69 cm) in test phase. (iii) The LightGBM downscaled product indicated that GWSA increased (0.32 cm/month) over 2002–2022. (iv) The influence of precipitation and evapotranspiration on GWSA appeared to be rather harmless, while the spatial distribution of GWSA and subsurface runoff showed significant positive trend over the pixels connected with dams, reservoirs, and irrigated areas. This suggests that anthropogenic variable is the main driver of GWSA changes within the VRB. (v) Statistically significant positive trends are observed in downscaled GWSA time series and in-situ GWSA measurements.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48539,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences","volume":"28 3","pages":"Pages 383-394"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144307459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Initially, GRACE and GRACE-FO products are evaluated, resulting in selecting the CSR center’s DDK5 monthly solutions for estimating terrestrial total water storage (TWS) in terms of equivalent water height (EWH). Monthly vertical displacements (VD) rates are calculated using GNSS data from EPGN stations, while TWS in terms of EWH is derived from GRACE/GRACE-FO data and WGHM model at the same locations. The findings from GRACE show that the mean monthly EWH values exhibit a negative trend of −2.36 mm/year from 2002 to 2012, followed by a positive trend of 3.94 mm/year from early 2013 until mid-2017. For GRACE-FO solutions, EWH shows a positive trend of 5.69 mm/year from mid-2018 to early 2024. A comparison of mean monthly EWH variations from GRACE/GRACE-FO and WGHM with GNSS-derived VD demonstrates a negative correlation at most GNSS stations, particularly in areas with significant hydrological signals, such as the Egyptian Delta and Lake Nasser. This emphasizes the impact of hydrological mass changes on these stations. Finally, mean monthly EWHs from GRACE are evaluated against the WGHM over Egypt. In addition, water level heights are compared to the EWHs from GRACE and WGHM at the ABSM station near Lake Nasser.

Ideally, the SAR platform maintains a linear trajectory at a constant altitude and velocity.

This paper presents a novel approach to enhance first-order motion compensation (MOCO) by addressing the motion errors caused by elliptical orbital dynamics and perturbations. The proposed methodology involves applying three distinct fitting techniques to the invariant range error, a critical parameter in first-order MOCO, and optimizing phase gradients to determine the optimal coefficients for improving image quality metrics. Real-raw SAR data from the Sentinel-1 Level-0 dataset is processed to validate the proposed techniques, and the results are benchmarked against the corresponding Sentinel-1 Level-1 Single Look Complex (SLC) image. The validation is conducted through two approaches: first, image quality assessment using sharpness, contrast, and entropy metrics; and second, quantitative evaluation of azimuth-integrated sidelobe ratio (AISLR), azimuth peak sidelobe ratio (APSLR), and impulse response width (IRW) at two prominent reflective points.
