Journal ArticleDOI

The peak structure and future changes of the relationships between extreme precipitation and temperature

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the curve relating daily precipitation extremes with local temperatures has a peak structure, increasing as expected at the low medium range of temperature variations but decreasing at high temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Urban heat island: Aerodynamics or imperviousness?

TL;DR: Using a new attribution method, it is found that spatial variations of daytime UHI intensity are more controlled by variations in the capacity of urban and rural areas to evaporate water, suggesting that strategies enhancing the evaporation capability such as green infrastructure are effective ways to mitigate urban heat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stronger Contributions of Urbanization to Heat Wave Trends in Wet Climates

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the urban-rural contrast of heat wave characteristics over mainland China and find that while both urban and rural heat waves are becoming more frequent, longerlasting, and stronger in most parts of China, their trends are different.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantifying the strength of soil moisture-precipitation coupling and its sensitivity to changes in surface water budget

TL;DR: In this article, a new index was proposed to quantify the strength of soil moisture-precipitation coupling in AGCMs and explores how the soil moisture and precipitation coupling in Community Atmosphere Model version 3 (CAM3) and Community Land Model version (CLM3) responds to parameterization-induced surface water budget changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of the global soil property maps for Earth system models

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed global soil property maps from the perspective of Earth system models, including soil physical and chemical and biological properties, and provided insights to soil data developers and users.
