Investigating the soil moisture–precipitation feedbacks that are associated with mesoscale convective system and non-mesoscale convective system rainfall.
Researchers found that increasing restrictions on nonrenewable groundwater use for irrigation shifts agricultural production from western states to the east.
Developing a new approach for defining energy-water-agriculture linkages highlights U.S. regions where focusing on individual sectors may miss cross-sectoral impacts.
Simulations accurately predicted storm cloud shield timing and growth, but not rain intensities, for over 300 tracked storm complexes in a storm-generating hotspot in Argentina.
Four factors, the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, North Atlantic subtropical high, low-level jet, and water vapor transport from Gulf of Mexico, primarily influence hail occurrence in the Northern Great Plains
New estimates show that coastlines around the world will experience an increase in the frequency of extreme sea level events at a range of global warming levels.
Knowing which bacteria in a community are involved with carbon cycling could help scientists predict how microbial carbon storage and release could influence future climate dynamics.
Differences in background moisture transport explain how climate variability modes influence the frequency of landfalling atmospheric rivers and their corresponding precipitation.
Examining flood occurrences associated with mesoscale convective systems and their characteristics allows researchers to explore climate-flood linkages.
