[I have long been fascinated by this ‘accidental waterbody’, from its creation all the way through the extreme pollution issues as it evaporates – and the lithium under it – a heck of a history, culturally, demographically, hydrologically, contaminants, public health, agriculturally and so much more…]

“HIGHLIGHTS
• Hydrologic models were used to assess remotely sensed surface water estimates.
• The accuracy of satellite surface water estimates diminished for waterbodies < 2 ha.
• Vegetation reduces accuracy of surface water detection, especially during wet years..."
