Irrigation accounts for~ 70% of global freshwater withdrawals and~ 90% of consumptive
water use, driving myriad Earth system impacts. In this Review, we summarize how irrigation …

Quantifying the interconnected impacts of climate change and irrigation on surface water
flows is critical for the proactive management of our water resources and the ecosystem …

Increasing irrigation demand has heavily relied on groundwater use, especially in places
with highly variable water supplies that are vulnerable to drought. Groundwater …

Actual evapotranspiration (ET a) is an essential variable in linking energy cycles, carbon,
and water, yet challenging to measure. Inputs uncertainty and deficiencies in the key …

Scenarios have emerged as valuable tools in managing complex human‐natural systems,
but the traditional approach of limiting focus on a small number of predetermined scenarios …

Surface soil moisture is projected to decrease under global warming. Such projections are
mostly based on climate models, which show large uncertainty (ie, inter-model spread) …

Global warming is assumed to accelerate the global water cycle. However, quantification of
the acceleration and regional analyses remain open. Accordingly, in this study, we address …

Rising evaporative demand (ETo) with a warming climate contributes to diminished water
availability in water-stressed agricultural regions globally. While increased ETo typically …

The escalation of water scarcity poses a significant challenge to the sustainability of irrigated
agriculture in arid regions, with climate change further amplifying the unpredictability of …

Abstract China's Losses Plateau (LP) is one of the ecologically vulnerable and the most
severe soil erosion regions. Thus, knowing spatiotemporal changes in evapotranspiration …
