Here we do...

SSH were found to decrease at 18...
Abstract Plants are able to adapt to changing environments and thus survive droughts. However, most land surface models produce unrealistically low ecosystem resiliency to droughts, degrading the credibility of the model‐predicted ecohydrological responses to climate change. We aim to enhance the Noah‐MP modeled ecosystem resilience to droughts wit...
Effective thermal conductivity of soils (λeff) is a critical parameter for agriculture, environment science, and engineering.

purpose, a winter wheat field on...

state. However, climate change scenarios downscaled from Earth System Models (ESMs) at
single sites cannot meet the requirements of distributed hydr...
A 20-km regional climate model (RCM) dynamically downscaled the Community Climate System Model version 4 (CCSM4) to compare 32-year historical and future “end-of-the-century” climatologies of the North American Monsoon (NAM).

Precipitation from the West African Monsoon (WAM) provides food security and supports the economy in the region. As a consequence of the intrinsic complexities of the WAM's evolution, accurate simulations of the WAM and its precipitation regime, through the application of regional climate models, are challenging. We used the coupled Weather Researc...
We use a predictive model of mean summer stream temperature to assess the vulnerability of USA streams to thermal alteration associated with climate change. The model uses air temperature and watershed features (e.g., watershed area and slope) from 569 US Geological Survey sites in the conterminous USA to predict stream temperatures. We assess the...

In this project, we linked climate, temperature, hydrologic, and species distribution models to examine how stream invertebrate biodiversity in the conterminous USA might respond to climate change (A2 emission scenario) by the end of...
Background/Question/Methods
Stream temperature (ST) is a primary determinant of the distribution of stream species and hence stream community composition. We therefore need ST models that can accurately predict both the current spatial variation in STs as well as how STs will respond (ΔST) to climate change (CC). We used data (yrs 1999-2008) from...
Background/Question/Methods
To understand potential ecological responses to climate change, climate models are needed that can accurately predict how temperature and precipitation vary at ecologically relevant spatial scales (e.g., ~ 4 km). Global climate models predict at coarse scales (e.g., 150 km) and often exhibit significant biases. We used...
Background/Question/Methods
Streamflow is expected to change with climate change, but the pattern of these changes will likely vary across the USA. We characterized streamflow regime based on several independent factors describing different ecologically relevant aspects of the streamflow regime. We also examined trends in streamflow regime variabl...
