Regional climate modeling using convection‐permitting models (CPMs; horizontal grid
spacing< 4 km) emerges as a promising framework to provide more reliable climate …

This review surveys the basic theories, observational methods, satellite algorithms, and land
surface models for terrestrial evapotranspiration, E (or λE, ie, latent heat flux), including a …

Abstract Changes in vegetation structure are expected to influence the redistribution of heat
and moisture; however, how variations in the leaf area index (LAI) affect this global energy …

Canadian boreal woodlands and forests cover approximately 3.09× 106 km2, located within
a larger boreal zone characterized by cool summers and long cold winters. Warming since …

Global change encompasses changes in the characteristics of inter-related climate variables
in space and time, and derived changes in terrestrial processes, including human activities …

Modeling results incorporating several distinct urban expansion futures for the United States
in 2100 show that, in the absence of any adaptive urban design, megapolitan expansion …

With the increasing use of the term “flash drought” within the scientific community, Otkin et al.
provide a general definition that identifies flash droughts based on their unusually rapid rate …

Land cover changes (LCCs) play an important role in the climate system. Research over
recent decades highlights the impacts of these changes on atmospheric temperature …

This article summarizes the changes in landscape structure because of human land
management over the last several centuries, and using observed and modeled data …

The Earth's climate is determined by a number of complex connected physical, chemical and
biological processes occurring in the atmosphere, land and ocean. The radiative properties …
