Regardless of annual rainfall amount changes, daily rainfall events are becoming more
intense but less frequent with anthropogenic warming. Larger rainfall events and longer dry …

Partitioning of evapotranspiration (ET) into evaporation from the soil (E) and transpiration
through the stomata of plants (T) is challenging but important in order to assess biomass …

Even though knowing the contributions of transpiration (T), soil and open water evaporation
(E), and interception (I) to terrestrial evapotranspiration (ET= T+ E+ I) is crucial for …

Climate change is intensifying the hydrologic cycle and is expected to increase the
frequency of extreme wet and dry years. Beyond precipitation amount, extreme wet and dry …

Drylands cover about 40% of the terrestrial land surface and account for approximately 40%
of global net primary productivity. Water is fundamental to the biophysical processes that …

Intensification of the global hydrological cycle, ranging from larger individual precipitation
events to more extreme multiyear droughts, has the potential to cause widespread …

Mangroves, highly efficient ecosystems in sequestering CO 2, are strongly impacted by
climate change. The lack of long-term observation in mangroves hinders the evaluation of …

Drought, defined as a marked deficiency of precipitation relative to normal, occurs as
periods of below-average precipitation or complete failure of precipitation inputs, and can be …

Intensification of the global hydrological cycle with atmospheric warming is expected to
increase interannual variation in precipitation amount and the frequency of extreme …

Studying the evaporation process and its link to the atmospheric circulation is central for a
better understanding of the feedbacks between the surface water components and the …
