A Global Dataset of Palmer Drought Severity Index for 1870–2002: Relationship with Soil Moisture and Effects of Surface Warming

TL;DR: A monthly dataset of Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) from 1870 to 2002 is derived using historical precipitation and temperature data for global land areas on a 2.58 grid as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in Continental Freshwater Discharge from 1948 to 2004

TL;DR: In this paper, a new dataset of historical monthly streamflow at the farthest downstream stations for the world's 925 largest ocean-reaching rivers has been created for community use.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improvements to the Community Land Model and their impact on the hydrological cycle

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the implementation of a selected set of these parameterizations and their effects on the simulated hydrological cycle, and the results from a set of offline simulations were compared with observed data for runoff, river discharge, soil moisture, and total water storage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimates of the Global Water Budget and Its Annual Cycle Using Observational and Model Data

TL;DR: In this article, a brief review is given of research in the Climate Analysis Section at NCAR on the water cycle and results are used to provide a new estimate of the global hydrological cycle for longterm annual means that includes estimates of the main reservoirs of water as well as the flows of water among them.
