Hidden Reservoirs: From Innovative Measurements via Cosmic Rays to Integrated Water Monitoring

How might we better account for water stored beneath the surface and across landscapes to strengthen integrated water resource management for agriculture and climate resilience?

As Asia and the Pacific face growing pressures on water resources, understanding water availability requires looking beyond what is visible at the surface. Soil moisture and water stored in glaciers are important to agricultural production, irrigation, and the seasonal flows that sustain communities and ecosystems. Yet measuring how these water reserves change across landscapes remains a challenge for effective water resource management. 

This e-Marketplace session explores how emerging measurement technologies and integrated monitoring approaches can improve our understanding of water availability across landscapes, featuring:

• Finapp: Cosmic-ray neutron sensing technology that measures soil moisture and supports continuous monitoring across landscapes
• SIAP+MICROS: Innovative monitoring solutions contributing to a more integrated understanding of water resources
