The document outlines the agenda for a 3-day training course covering 10 working packages (WPs) on monitoring water resources in a plateau region using ground-based and satellite observations. Each day focuses on several WPs, with presentations on the theoretical background, datasets, and preliminary results of each. Presenters are assigned from the organizations leading each WP. Day 1 covers WPs 1-4, Day 2 covers WPs 5-8, and Day 3 includes WPs 9-10 as well as roundtable discussions on research topics and implementing results.
