This paper describes the latest version of the algorithm MAIAC used for processing the
MODIS Collection 6 data record. Since initial publication in 2011–2012, MAIAC has …

Water recycled through transpiring forests influences the spatial distribution of precipitation
in the Amazon and has been shown to play a role in the initiation of the wet season …

In tropical forests, leaf phenology—particularly the pronounced dry-season green-up—
strongly regulates biogeochemical cycles of carbon and water fluxes. However …

A new global estimate of surface turbulent fluxes, latent heat flux (LE) and sensible heat flux
(H), and gross primary production (GPP) is developed using a machine learning approach …

Understanding the effects of intensification of Amazon basin hydrological cycling—manifest
as increasingly frequent floods and droughts—on water and energy cycles of tropical forests …

The terrestrial water cycle links the soil and atmosphere moisture reservoirs through four
fluxes: precipitation, evaporation, runoff, and atmospheric moisture convergence (net import …

Land surface models (LSMs) rely on vegetation parameters for use in hydrological and
energy balance analysis, monitoring, and forecasting. This study examines the influence that …

The Amazon plays a critical role in global atmospheric budgets of methane (CH 4) and
nitrous oxide (N 2 O). However, while we have a relatively good understanding of the …

Water vapour in the atmosphere is the source of a major climate feedback mechanism and
potential increases in the availability of water vapour could have important consequences …
