The last decade has seen considerable progress in scientific research on vegetation
ecosystem services. While much research has focused on forests and wetlands, grasslands …

A warming climate is expected to perturb the hydrological cycle, resulting in changes to both
the frequency and duration of drought, especially in arid and semiarid grassland. Although …

The selection of optimal actual evapotranspiration (ET) dataset for hydro-meteorological
applications requires a detailed accuracy assessment and uncertainty characterization. This …

Water conflicts between the economy and ecology have been severe in inland river basins.
To solve this problem, this study selected the Heihe River Basin (HRB) as a typical basin in …

The goal of this study is to characterize the sensible (H) and latent (LE) heat exchange for
different land covers in the heterogeneous steppe landscape of the Xilin River catchment …

Around 900 million people currently have no access to safe drinking water and around 2.6
billion people live without adequate sanitation (WHO/UNICEF 2010). This situation has …

Numerical modeling of interacting flow and transport processes between different
hydrological compartments, such as the atmosphere/land surface/vegetation/soil …

The semi-arid forest-steppe ecotone in the Khentii Mountains in Northern Mongolia is
characterized by southerly exposed steppe slopes, shrublands in the floodplain of river …

Evapotranspiration (ET) is an important process in the hydrological cycle, and vegetation
change is a primary factor that affects E T. In this study, we analyzed the annual and inter …

Reference evapotranspiration (ET 0) is an important parameter of agricultural activity and
hydro-meteorological studies. In this study, we used the Food and Agriculture Organization …
