Water use efficiency (WUE) is defined as the amount of carbon assimilated as biomass or
grain produced per unit of water used by the crop. One of the primary questions being asked …

A global network of long‐term carbon and water flux measurements has existed since the
late 1990s. With its representative sampling of the terrestrial biosphere's climate and …

利用黄河流域及其周边123 个气象站1961~ 2000 年20cm 口径蒸发皿资料,
分析了黄河流域蒸发皿蒸发量的气候变化趋势. 结果表明, 就整个流域平均而言, 尽管在1960 …

The present paper addresses driving mechanisms of global monsoon (GM) variability and
outstanding issues in GM science. This is the second synthesis of the PAGES GM Working …

The literature on atmospheric particulate matter (PM), or atmospheric aerosol, has increased
enormously over the last 2 decades and amounts now to some 1500–2000 papers per year …

This chapter addresses the biogeochemical cycles of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4),
and nitrous oxide (N2O). The three greenhouse gases have increased in the atmosphere …

Abstract The Tibetan Plateau (TP) exerts strong thermal forcing on the atmosphere over
Asian monsoon region and supplies water resources to adjacent river basins. Recently, the …

Changes in temperature, CO2, and precipitation under the scenarios of climate change for
the next 30 yr present a challenge to crop production. This review focuses on the impact of …

Human activities are releasing tiny particles (aerosols) into the atmosphere. These human-
made aerosols enhance scattering and absorption of solar radiation. They also produce …

Black carbon in soot is the dominant absorber of visible solar radiation in the atmosphere.
Anthropogenic sources of black carbon, although distributed globally, are most concentrated …
