Atmospheric processes and climate are closely linked to the carbon cycle in the Amazon region as a consequence of the strong biosphere-atmosphere coupling. The radiative effects o…

Mesoscale eddies are abundant in the global oceans and known to affect marine biogeochemistry. Understanding their cumulative impact on the air-sea carbon dioxide (CO2)  flux is l…

Multispectral mapping data from the Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM) provide a unique opportunity to characterize south polar ice deposits at higher …

Evaporation is controlled by soil moisture (SM) availability when conditions are not extremely wet. In such a moisture-limited regime, land-atmosphere coupling is active, and a ch…

Quantitative Precipitation Estimates (QPE) from merged rain gauge and radar measurements have become widely available in the last two decades. The errors associated with these pro…

Climate change and nitrogen (N) pollution are altering biogeochemical and ecohydrological processes in dryland watersheds, increasing N export, and threatening water quality. Whil…

Today, the ocean absorbs ~25% of the human-induced carbon emissions. Earth System Models (ESMs) indicate that the absorption increases by 0.79±0.07PgC per ppm of atmospheric CO2 i…
