Reservoirs serve essential functions, including providing drinking water, hydroelectric power, and irrigation. However, their water levels are subject to fluctuations, particularly during hotter months.
The analysis of Landsat data reveals both seasonal dips and long-term trends in water levels, which are critical for understanding the dynamics of freshwater resources.
Effective management of these resources hinges on accurately interpreting these changes, as they have direct implications for water supply stability and infrastructure planning.
