Evapotranspiration (ET)—the distribution and partitioning of which is strongly mediated by
vegetation—is central to the water, energy and carbon cycles. In this Review, we examine …

Vegetation greenness has been increasing globally since at least 1981, when satellite
technology enabled large-scale vegetation monitoring. The greening phenomenon, together …

The magnitude of stream and river carbon dioxide (CO2) emission is affected by seasonal
changes in watershed biogeochemistry and hydrology. Global estimates of this flux are …

Macroclimate warming is often assumed to occur within forests despite the potential for tree
cover to modify microclimates. Here, using paired measurements, we compared the …

The African continent hosts some of the largest freshwater systems worldwide, characterized
by a large distribution and variability of surface waters that play a key role in the water …

Drought is a complex and multivariate phenomenon influenced by diverse physical and
biological processes. Such complexity precludes simplistic explanations of cause and effect …

The Global Land Evaporation Amsterdam Model (GLEAM) is a set of algorithms dedicated to
the estimation of terrestrial evaporation and root-zone soil moisture from satellite data. Ever …

The time that water takes to travel through the terrestrial hydrological cycle and the critical
zone is of great interest in Earth system sciences with broad implications for water quality …

Abstract Strontium isotope ratios (87 Sr/86 Sr) are a popular tool in provenance applications
in archeology, forensics, paleoecology, and environmental sciences. Using bioavailable 87 …

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 …
