Short summary
An improved method is used to integrate satellite-derived terrestrial water storage and surface soil moisture observations into a hydrological model within the Brahmaputra River basin (South Asia). This leads to a more realistic representation of the water stored in the land, allowing us to better understand its changes in space and time. The information the results provide is crucial in this basin due to its increasing water demand and vulnerability to extreme events because of climate change.
