A legacy effect refers to the impacts that previous conditions have on current processes or
properties. Legacies have been recognized by many disciplines, from physiology and …

Soil‐mantled pole‐facing hillslopes on Earth tend to be steeper, wetter, and have more
vegetation cover compared with adjacent equator‐facing hillslopes. These and other slope …

Solar radiation has a clear signature on the spatial organization of ecohydrologic fluxes,
vegetation patterns and dynamics, and landscape morphology in semiarid ecosystems …

In semiarid complex terrain, the combination of elevation and aspect promotes variations in
the water and energy balance, resulting in slopes with distinct ecologic and hydrologic …

Observations at the field, catchment, and continental scales across a range of arid and
semiarid climates and latitudes reveal aspect‐controlled patterns in soil properties …

Topography‐mediated microclimates give rise to opposing hillslope ecosystems in north
facing and south facing slopes of a semiarid basin in central New Mexico. It is hypothesized …

The disturbance or removal of vegetation by wildfire influences channel incision following
intense rainfall events. Here we empirically examine relationships between the severity of …

Hillslope asymmetry, ie variation in hillslope form as a function of slope aspect and/or mean
solar insolation, has been documented in many climates and geologic contexts. Such …

Forest cover loss is increasing at unprecedented rates, affecting the hydrologic systems of
major freshwater-producing regions of the world. However, quantification of the tip** …

Rangelands are natural ecosystems that serve as essential sources of forage for
domesticated livestock and wildlife. Therefore, accurately map** nutrient levels in …
