Soil moisture dominates dryness stress on ecosystem production globally
Dryness stress can limit vegetation growth and is often characterized by low soil moisture
(SM) and high atmospheric water demand (vapor pressure deficit, VPD). However, the …

Direct observations of rock moisture, a hidden component of the hydrologic cycle
DM Rempe, WE Dietrich - Proceedings of the national …, 2018 - National Acad Sciences
Recent theory and field observations suggest that a systematically varying weathering zone,
that can be tens of meters thick, commonly develops in the bedrock underlying hillslopes …

Reviews and syntheses: Turning the challenges of partitioning ecosystem evaporation and transpiration into opportunities
Evaporation (E) and transpiration (T) respond differently to ongoing changes in climate,
atmospheric composition, and land use. It is difficult to partition ecosystem-scale …

Representation of plant hydraulics in the Noah‐MP land surface model: Model development and multiscale evaluation
Plants are expected to face increasing water stress under future climate change. Most land
surface models, including Noah‐MP, employ an idealized “big‐leaf” concept to regulate …
