Drought prediction is of critical importance to early warning for drought managements. This
review provides a synthesis of drought prediction based on statistical, dynamical, and hybrid …

Spatiotemporal forecasting (STF) extends traditional time series forecasting or spatial
interpolation problem to space and time dimensions. Here, we review the statistical, physical …

Atmospheric vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is a critical variable in determining plant
photosynthesis. Synthesis of four global climate datasets reveals a sharp increase of VPD …

Results are presented from the second phase of the multiinstitution North American Land
Data Assimilation System (NLDAS‐2) research partnership. In NLDAS, the Noah, Variable …

Soil moisture is a key variable of the climate system. It constrains plant transpiration and
photosynthesis in several regions of the world, with consequent impacts on the water …

Previous estimates of land-atmosphere interaction (the impact of soil moisture on
precipitation) have been limited by a lack of observational data and by the model …

Six approaches for downscaling climate model outputs for use in hydrologic simulation were
evaluated, with particular emphasis on each method's ability to produce precipitation and …

Differing perceptions of the impacts on hydrological functions of tropical forest clearance and
conversion to other land uses have given rise to growing and often heated debate about …

The terrestrial biosphere and atmosphere interact through a series of feedback loops.
Variability in terrestrial vegetation growth and phenology can modulate fluxes of water and …

Increasing greenhouse gas concentrations are expected to enhance the interannual
variability of summer climate in Europe,, and other mid-latitude regions,, potentially causing …
