Climate change, coastal tourism, and impact chains–a literature review
Climate change impacts tourism, since both supply and demand of tourism services depend
on the quality and the management of a set of environmental attributes. This paper critically …

The twenty‐first century Colorado River hot drought and implications for the future
B Udall, J Overpeck - Water Resources Research, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract Between 2000 and 2014, annual Colorado River flows averaged 19% below the
1906–1999 average, the worst 15‐year drought on record. At least one‐sixth to one‐half …

Global warming and 21st century drying
Global warming is expected to increase the frequency and intensity of droughts in the twenty-
first century, but the relative contributions from changes in moisture supply (precipitation) …

Partitioning global land evapotranspiration using CMIP5 models constrained by observations
The ratio of plant transpiration to total terrestrial evapotranspiration (T/ET) captures the role
of vegetation in surface–atmosphere interactions. However, its magnitude remains highly …

Implications of projected climate change for groundwater recharge in the western United States
Existing studies on the impacts of climate change on groundwater recharge are either global
or basin/location-specific. The global studies lack the specificity to inform decision making …

Plant hydraulics accentuates the effect of atmospheric moisture stress on transpiration
Transpiration, the dominant component of terrestrial evapotranspiration (ET), directly
connects the water, energy and carbon cycles and is typically restricted by soil and …
