Monitoring Earth's terrestrial water conditions is critically important to many hydrological
applications such as global food production; assessing water resources sustainability; and flood, …

A generalization of the single soil layer variable infiltration capacity (VIC) land surface
hydrological model previously implemented in the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory …

We present new global maps of the Köppen-Geiger climate classification at an unprecedented
1-km resolution for the present-day (1980–2016) and for projected future conditions (2071…

precipitation products for orographic effects. J. Climate, 19 , 15–38. … Wood, 1998: Surface …

Drought is expected to increase in frequency and severity in the future as a result of climate
change, mainly as a consequence of decreases in regional precipitation but also because of …

We use the method of probability-weighted moments to derive estimators of the parameters
and quantiles of the generalized extreme-value distribution. We investigate the properties of …

More than half of the solar energy absorbed by land surfaces is currently used to evaporate
water 1 . Climate change is expected to intensify the hydrological cycle 2 and to alter …

Most of the existing generation of general circulation models (GCMs) use so‐called bucket
algorithms to represent land‐surface hydrology. Biosphere‐atmosphere models that include …

Results are presented from the multi‐institution partnership to develop a real‐time and
retrospective North American Land Data Assimilation System (NLDAS). NLDAS consists of (1) …

Recent and potential future increases in global temperatures are likely to be associated with
impacts on the hydrologic cycle, including changes to precipitation and increases in …
