Evapotranspiration on a greening Earth
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 …

Understanding interactions among climate, water, and vegetation with the Budyko framework
G Gan, Y Liu, G Sun - Earth-Science Reviews, 2021 - Elsevier
The Budyko models provide a transparent framework for analyzing climate-catchment
interactions and therefore have been widely used to quantify the role of vegetation …

Coupling between the terrestrial carbon and water cycles—a review
The terrestrial carbon and water cycles are strongly coupled. As atmospheric carbon dioxide
concentration increases, climate and the coupled hydrologic cycle are modified, thus …

How do leaf and ecosystem measures of water‐use efficiency compare?
The terrestrial carbon and water cycles are intimately linked: the carbon cycle is driven by
photosynthesis, while the water balance is dominated by transpiration, and both fluxes are …
