Critical Soil Moisture Derived From Satellite Observations Over Europe
(Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2020)Evapotranspiration (ET) is a crucial quantity through which land surface conditions can impact near-surface weather and vice versa. ET can be limited by energy or water availability. The transition between water- and ... -
Effect of spatial resolution of satellite images on estimating the greenness and evapotranspiration of urban green spaces
(Hydrological Processes, 2020)Urban green spaces (UGS), like most managed land covers, are getting progressively affected by water scarcity and drought. Preserving, restoring and expanding UGS require sustainable management of green and blue water ... -
Potential Added Value of Incorporating Human Water Use on the Simulation of Evapotranspiration and Precipitation in a Continental-Scale Bedrock-to-Atmosphere Modeling System: A Validation Study Considering Observational Uncertainty
(Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019)Human activities, such as human water use, have been shown to directly influence terrestrial water fluxes and states. Simulations of soil moisture, river discharge, evapotranspiration, and groundwater storage are significantly ... -
Reconciling Canopy Interception Parameterization and Rainfall Forcing Frequency in the Community Land Model for Simulating Evapotranspiration of Rainforests and Oil Palm Plantations in Indonesia
(Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019)By mediating evapotranspiration processes, plant canopies play an important role in the terrestrial water cycle and regional climate. Substantial uncertainties exist in modeling canopy water interception and related ... -
Water scarcity and oil palm expansion: social views and environmental processes
(Ecology and Society, 2016)Conversions of natural ecosystems, e.g., from rain forests to managed plantations, result in significant changes in the hydrological cycle including periodic water scarcity. In Indonesia, large areas of forest were lost ...
