AB: This presentation will provide an overview of water-related activities of the Group on Earth Observations (GEO), which is responsible for developing the Global Earth System of Systems (GEOSS). In particular, it will describe the research, development, and applications activities being undertaken under three GEO tasks including integrated data product development, support for water resource management and capacity building. The talk will place a special emphasis on the on-going applications activities in the Americas and opportunities for more collaboration across the Americas.
