**njiang, China, is a representative arid region in Central Asia that is characterized by a
unique mountain–basin structure and fragile mountain–oasis–desert ecosystems. 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 …

The evaporative loss from global lakes (natural and artificial) is a critical component of the
terrestrial water and energy balance. However, the evaporation volume of these water …

There has been a long debate on the extent to which precipitation relies on terrestrial
evaporation (moisture recycling). In the past, most research focused on moisture recycling …

We review the major conceptual models of atmospheric moisture transport, which describe
the link between evaporation from the ocean and precipitation over the continents. We begin …

The most important sources of atmospheric moisture at the global scale are herein identified,
both oceanic and terrestrial, and a characterization is made of how continental regions are …

In this study, the climate variability and associated atmospheric water cycle changes in the
**njiang (China) over the past five decades (1961–2010) are investigated. The Brubaker …

Terrestrial moisture contributed by surface evaporation and transpiration, also known as
recycled moisture, plays an important role in hydrological processes especially across arid …

Ecohydrological systems may be characterized as nonlinear, complex, open dissipative
systems. Such systems consist of many coupled processes, and the couplings change …

The replacement of native C4‐dominated grassland by C3‐dominated shrubland is
considered an ecological state transition where different ecological communities can exist …
