RISSoil Moisture–Evapotranspiration Coupling in CMIP5 Models: Relationship with Simulated Climate and Projections
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractSoil moisture?atmosphere coupling is a key process underlying climate variability and change over land. The control of soil moisture (SM) on evapotranspiration (ET) is a necessary condition for soil moisture to ...
Evapotranspiration Partitioning in CMIP5 Models: Uncertainties and Future Projections
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractEvapotranspiration (ET) is a key process affecting terrestrial hydroclimate, as it modulates the land surface carbon, energy, and water budgets. Evapotranspiration mainly consists of the sum of three components: ...
Global Trends and Variability in Soil Moisture and Drought Characteristics, 1950–2000, from Observation-Driven Simulations of the Terrestrial Hydrologic Cycle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Global and regional trends in drought for 1950?2000 are analyzed using a soil moisture?based drought index over global terrestrial areas, excluding Greenland and Antarctica. The soil moisture fields are derived from a ...
Uncertainties in Future Projections of Summer Droughts and Heat Waves over the Contiguous United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractDroughts and heat waves have important impacts on multiple sectors including water resources, agriculture, electricity generation, and public health, so it is important to understand how they will be affected by ...
Development of a 50-Year High-Resolution Global Dataset of Meteorological Forcings for Land Surface Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Understanding the variability of the terrestrial hydrologic cycle is central to determining the potential for extreme events and susceptibility to future change. In the absence of long-term, large-scale observations of the ...
Soil Moisture Drought in China, 1950–2006
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: our physically based land surface hydrology models driven by a common observation-based 3-hourly meteorological dataset were used to simulate soil moisture over China for the period 1950?2006. Monthly values of total column ...
Representation of Terrestrial Hydrology and Large-Scale Drought of the Continental United States from the North American Regional Reanalysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR) is a state-of-the-art land?atmosphere reanalysis product that provides improved representation of the terrestrial hydrologic cycle compared to previous global reanalyses, having ...
Seasonal Forecasting of Global Hydrologic Extremes: System Development and Evaluation over GEWEX Basins
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: easonal hydrologic extremes in the form of droughts and wet spells have devastating impacts on human and natural systems. Improving understanding and predictive capability of hydrologic extremes, and facilitating adaptations ...
Long-Term Regional Estimates of Evapotranspiration for Mexico Based on Downscaled ISCCP Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The development and evaluation of a long-term high-resolution dataset of potential and actual evapotranspiration for Mexico based on remote sensing data are described. Evapotranspiration is calculated using a modified ...
Development of a High-Resolution Gridded Daily Meteorological Dataset over Sub-Saharan Africa: Spatial Analysis of Trends in Climate Extremes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ssessing changes in the frequency and intensity of extreme meteorological events and their impact on water resources, agriculture, and infrastructure is necessary to adequately prepare and adapt to future change. This is ...
