Droughts in a warming climate have become more common and more extreme, making
understanding forest responses to water stress increasingly pressing. Analysis of water …

Land models, which have been developed by the modeling community in the past few
decades to predict future states of ecosystems and climate, have to be critically evaluated for …

Photosynthetic capacity and its relationship to leaf nitrogen content are two of the most
sensitive parameters of terrestrial biosphere models (TBM) whose representation in global …

Insights into how terrestrial ecosystems affect the Earth's response to changes in climate and
rising atmospheric CO2 levels rely heavily on the predictions of terrestrial biosphere models …

There is a growing consensus that land surface models (LSMs) that simulate terrestrial
biosphere exchanges of matter and energy must be better constrained with data to quantify …

Eddy covariance flux towers measure net exchange of land–atmosphere flux. For the flux of
carbon dioxide, this net ecosystem exchange (NEE) is governed by two processes, gross …

Context: The aim of the Australian Water Availability Project (AWAP) is to monitor the state
and trend of the terrestrial water balance of the Australian continent, using model-data fusion …

Land models are essential tools for understanding and predicting terrestrial processes and
climate–carbon feedbacks in the Earth system, but uncertainties in their future projections …

Data-model integration plays a critical role in assessing and improving our capacity to
predict ecosystem dynamics. Similarly, the ability to attach quantitative statements of …

We describe a system for constraining the spatial distribution of fossil fuel emissions of CO2.
The system is based on a modified Kaya identity which expresses emissions as a product of …
