Estimating surface water and vadose water resources for an ungauged inland catchment in Vietnam

This study aimed to assess water resources for the La Vi catchment, an ungauged inland basin in Vietnam. An Internet of Things-based automatic meteorological station has been installed in the catchment to record hourly weather data from 2016. By comparing water level observations with limited discha...
