TL;DR: A multimodel estimation of the regions on Earth where precipitation is affected by soil moisture anomalies during Northern Hemisphere summer indicates potential benefits of this estimation may include improved seasonal rainfall forecasts.

TL;DR: An estimate of global land evapotranspiration from 1982 to 2008 is provided using a global monitoring network, meteorological and remote-sensing observations, and a machine-learning algorithm, which suggests that increasing soil-moisture limitations on evapOTranspiration largely explain the recent decline of the global land-evapotranpiration trend.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parameterization improvements and functional and structural advances in version 4 of the Community Land Model
David M. Lawrence,Keith W. Oleson,Mark Flanner,Peter E. Thornton,Sean Swenson,Peter Lawrence,Xubin Zeng,Zong-Liang Yang,Samuel Levis,Koichi Sakaguchi,Gordon B. Bonan,Andrew G. Slater +11 more
TL;DR: The Community Land Model (CLM) as discussed by the authors is the land component of the Community Climate System Model (CCSM) and has been extended with a carbon-nitrogen (CN) biogeochemical model that is prognostic with respect to vegetation, litter, and soil carbon and nitrogen states.
