Soil moisture (SM) is a key variable driving hydrologic, climatic, and ecological processes.
Although it is highly variable, both spatially and temporally, there is limited data availability …

Increases in the abundance or density of woody plants in historically semiarid and arid
grassland ecosystems have important ecological, hydrological, and socioeconomic …

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 …

Disaggregation based on Physical And Theoretical scale Change (DisPATCh) is an
algorithm dedicated to the disaggregation of soil moisture observations using high …

To understand the coupled water and energy cycles in semiarid environments, we
measured temporal fluctuations of evapotranspiration (ET) and identified key sources of the …

ABSTRACT A combination of satellite imagery, meteorological station data, and the
NCEP/NCAR reanalysis has been used to explore the spatial and temporal evolution of the …

Alpine grassland ecosystem on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) is highly sensitive to climate
change and plays a critical role in terrestrial carbon cycle. However, the long-term …

We used moisture Bowen ratio flux tower data and the enhanced vegetation index (EVI) from
the moderate resolution imaging spectrometer (MODIS) on the Terra satellite to measure …

Water availability in semiarid regions is endangered, which is not only due to changing
climate conditions, but also to anthropogenic land use changes. The present study analyzed …

Abstract The use of Penman–Monteith (PM) equation in thermal remote sensing based
surface energy balance modeling is not prevalent due to the unavailability of any direct …
