Creator:: Bassiouni, Maoya
Abstract:: Resilient water, food, and energy management strategies for an ever-growing population and changing environment depends on our understanding of water and carbon cycles from local to global scales. Fluxes of water and carbon are coupled by photosynthesis and plant transpiration cycles the largest fraction of terrestrial water from the land...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Creator:: Talsma, Carl J.
Abstract:: Satellite Based evapotranspiration (ET) models have become a dominant means to estimate large-scale surface fluxes of water. Global and regional ET estimates are important parameters in many climate forecasts and hydrologic models. However, large scale partitioning of ET into soil evaporation, transpiration, and canopy interceptions remains largely unknown and modeled...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Creator:: Li, Bonan
Abstract:: The development of ecohydrological frameworks and theories under the ongoing global climate crisis depends on the development of new and advanced ecohydrological measurements. Currently, numerous of datasets have been collected at plot and ecosystem levels to understand the complex interactions of along the soil, plant, and atmosphere continuum. The development...

Creator:: Richardson, Will P.
Abstract:: Transpiration (T), or the evaporation of water through plant stomata, plays a critical role in climate and biophysical processes at the earth’s surface. While T makes up a majority of the terrestrial evapotranspiration (ET) flux on a global scale, the partitioning of ET is variable and remains elusive. Because photosynthetic...

Creator:: URycki, Dawn R.
Abstract:: Interactions and feedbacks among climate change effects and continued human impacts will exacerbate impacts to water resources in complex ways. An urgent imperative of the hydrologic community is to understand the response of hydrologic systems to these perturbations, thus contributing to long-term sustainability of water resources in an uncertain future....

Creator:: Finkenbiner, Catherine E.
Abstract:: Climate change impacts everyone’s food and water security. Increasing global temperatures accelerate the hydrologic cycle and consequently impact the water resources for billions of people worldwide. Countless models have been developed to represent various components of the hydrologic cycle at various spatial and temporal scales. These are often validated against...
