Land surface evapotranspiration (ET) is a major source of moisture for the global hydrologic
cycle. Though the influence of the land surface is well documented, moisture tracking …

Simulating summer precipitation is a significant challenge for climate models that rely on
cumulus parameterizations to represent moist convection processes. Motivated by recent …

Projected future trends in water availability are associated with large uncertainties in many
regions of the globe. In mountain areas with complex topography, climate models have often …

Several studies have established that soil moisture increases after adding a groundwater
component in land surface models, owing to the additional supply of subsurface water …

For 14 alternative climate futures, water yield and snow water equivalent (SWE) throughout
the contiguous United States (CONUS) were projected over the twenty-first century using the …

In this paper, a diagnostic metric—termed the local-convergence ratio—is used to analyze
the contribution of evaporation and atmospheric moisture-flux convergence to model-based …

water cycle. US Global Change Research Program Report, Washington, DC, 118 …

A recent study by Carbone et al. revealed “episodes” of warm-season rainfall over North
America characterized as coherently propagating signals often linking multiple mesoscale …

Robust and physically understandable responses of the global atmospheric water cycle to a
warming climate are presented. By considering interannual responses to changes in surface …

The influence of climate feedbacks on regional hydrological changes under warming is
poorly understood. Here, a moist energy balance model (MEBM) with a Hadley Cell …
