From:Earth System Dynamics (Vol. 13, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedThe degree of trust placed in climate model projections is commensurate with how well their uncertainty can be quantified, particularly at timescales relevant to climate policy makers. On inter-annual to decadal...
-
From:Geoscientific Model Development (Vol. 15, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedThe roughness of the land surface (z.sub.0) is a key property, exerting significant influence on the amount of near-surface turbulent activity and consequently the turbulent exchange of energy, water, momentum, and...

From:Geoscientific Model Development (Vol. 15, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedProducing targeted climate information at the local scale, including major sources of climate change projection uncertainty for diverse emissions scenarios, is essential to support climate change mitigation and...

From:Earth System Dynamics (Vol. 13, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedUnderstanding and quantifying land management impacts on local climate is important for distinguishing between the effects of land management and large-scale climate forcings. This study for the first time explicitly...

From:Nature (Vol. 443, Issue 7108) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Sonia I. Seneviratne (corresponding author) [1]; Daniel Lüthi [1]; Michael Litschi [1]; Christoph Schär [1] Increasing greenhouse gas concentrations are expected to enhance the interannual variability of...

From:Geoscientific Model Development (Vol. 10, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedLand surface hydrology is an important control of surface weather and climate. A valuable technique to investigate this link is the prescription of soil moisture in land surface models, which leads to a decoupling of...

From:Nature (Vol. 491, Issue 7424) Peer-ReviewedA new assessment of drought trends over the past 60 years finds little evidence of an expansion of the area affected by droughts, contradicting several previous estimates. See Letter...
-
From:Nature (Vol. 529, Issue 7587) Peer-ReviewedGlobal temperature targets, such as the widely accepted limit of an increase above pre-industrial temperatures of two degrees Celsius, may fail to communicate the urgency of reducing carbon dioxide (C[O.sub.2])...
-
From:Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 21, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedAccurate measurements of evapotranspiration are required for many meteorological, climatological, ecological, and hydrological research applications and developments. Here we examine and compare two well-established...
-
From:Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 20, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedA comprehensive assessment of the partitioning of precipitation (P) into evapotranspiration (E) and runoff (Q) is of major importance for a wide range of socio-economic sectors. For...

From:Geoscientific Model Development (Vol. 9, Issue 8) Peer-ReviewedThe Land Surface, Snow and Soil Moisture Model Intercomparison Project (LS3MIP) is designed to provide a comprehensive assessment of land surface, snow and soil moisture feedbacks on climate variability and climate...
-
From:Earth System Dynamics (Vol. 11, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedEarth system models (ESMs) are invaluable tools to study the climate system's response to specific greenhouse gas emission pathways. Large single-model initial-condition and multi-model ensembles are used to investigate...

From:Earth System Dynamics (Vol. 8, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedThe Earth's land surface and the atmosphere are strongly interlinked through the exchange of energy and matter. This coupled behaviour causes various land--atmosphere feedbacks, and an insufficient understanding of...
