[AHW24-P06] 70 years of GRACE-like Terrestrial Water Storage Reconstruction using a Statistical Method
キーワード:GRACE TWS, Reconstruction, Statistical Modeling, Climatic change, Krishna River Basin
Terrestrial water storage (TWS), comprising of water stored above and beneath the earth’s surface, plays a key role in various Earth system processes and meeting various natural and human-induced water demands. The lack of continuous and high-resolution records on various TWS components (mainly surface water, snow, soil moisture, and groundwater) has hindered its holistic quantification. Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and its successor, GRACE-Follow-On, have revolutionized TWS monitoring from space on required spatiotemporal scales with inherent limitations. However, GRACE data suffers from limited duration (starting April 2002), intermittent data gaps, and an 11-month gap between two missions from July 2017 to May 2018.
Here, we attempt to reconstruct monthly deseasonalized and detrended terrestrial water storage anomalies (Dst-TWSA) for the selected Krishna River Basin from 1951 to 2020 using a statistical modeling approach and forcing hydro-meteorological data (precipitation, temperature) from two different sources, i.e., IMD and ERA5. Two different GRACE Dst-TWSA data from CSR and JPL were also used to calibrate the reconstructed Dst-TWSA from 2003-2016. The reconstructed Dst-TWSA varies from ~-150 mm to ~200 mm similar to GRACE Dst-TWSA and possesses multiple increasing and decreasing trends in the reconstructed duration based on loess smoothing. The CSR and JPL-based reconstructed data show the highest decreasing trend of 6.45 km3 yr-1 and 9.03 km3 yr-1, respectively, from 1963 to 1972 and an increasing trend of 10.32 km3 yr-1 and 13.42 km3 yr-1, correspondingly, during 2016 to 2020 with IMD forcing data. While with the ERA5 forcing data, these showed a decreasing trend of 8.60 km3 yr-1 and 8.17 km3 yr-1, respectively, from 1967 to 1972 and an increasing trend of 8.17 km3 yr-1 and 13.42 km3 yr-1 from 2016 to 2020. Pearson correlation coefficient between GRACE TWS from multiple sources and different reconstructed data varies from 0.83 to 0.86. There are a few instances of overestimation and underestimation of the reconstructed TWS during extremely high and low precipitation. The reconstructed Dst-TWSA shows seasonal variation and short-term fluctuations pointing out the natural and anthropogenic impact on the study area. The results indicate a hydrological recovery in the basin, possibly because of climatic effects. The 70 years of reconstructed Dst-TWSA helps us better understand the long-term hydrological cycle and fill the various data gaps, and can subsequently be used for monitoring and forecasting the water extremes in the basin.
