Groundwater is by far the largest unfrozen freshwater resource on the planet. It plays a
critical role as the bottom of the hydrologic cycle, redistributing water in the subsurface and …

Drought is a complex natural hazard that impacts ecosystems and society in many ways.
Many of these impacts are associated with hydrological drought (drought in rivers, lakes …

Terrestrial water storage (TWS) modulates the hydrological cycle and is a key determinant of
water availability and an indicator of drought. While historical TWS variations have been …

Accurate quantification of global land evapotranspiration is necessary for understanding
variability in the global water cycle, which is expected to intensify under climate change …

Although our knowledge of climate change impacts on energy systems has increased
substantially over the past few decades, there remains a lack of comprehensive overview of …

The WFDE5 dataset has been generated using the WATCH Forcing Data (WFD)
methodology applied to surface meteorological variables from the ERA5 reanalysis. The …

Climate change was projected to have negative effects on water availability and
consequently a serious constraint to food production in many areas of the world. However …

WaterGAP is a global hydrological model that quantifies human use of groundwater and
surface water as well as water flows and water storage and thus water resources on all land …

Water scarcity is a rapidly growing concern around the globe, but little is known about how it
has developed over time. This study provides a first assessment of continuous sub-national …

Assessing reliability of global models is critical because of increasing reliance on these
models to address past and projected future climate and human stresses on global water …
