Moon-based Earth observation: scientific concept and potential applications

International Journal of Digital Earth, 2018
Although Earth’s surface parameters obtained from satellite data have become more and more precise, it is still difficult to guarantee temporal consistency and spatial continuity for large-scale geoscience phenomena.

Sea Ice Latent Heat Becomes More Active in the Arctic Sea Ice Energy Budget

Geophysical Research Letters
Arctic sea ice has experienced rapid decrease in recent decades. The sea ice property changes have altered its thermodynamic processes, enhancing the heat exchange among atmosphere‐ocean‐ice surface.

Top-of-Atmosphere Shortwave Anisotropy over Liquid Clouds: Sensitivity to Clouds’ Microphysical Structure and Cloud-Topped Moisture

Atmosphere, 2018
We investigated whether Top-of-Atmosphere Shortwave (TOA SW) anisotropy—essential to convert satellite-based instantaneous TOA SW radiance measurements into TOA SW fluxes—is sensitive to cloud-top effective radii and cloud-topped water vapor.

Impacts of Vegetation Greening on Summer Mean and Extreme Land Surface Temperatures in Eastern China

Geophysical Research Letters
Vegetation greening in China is known to cool the land surface by altering the energy budget through biophysical processes. However, its mitigation effects on extreme temperatures and the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Accounting for Changing Temperature Patterns Increases Historical Estimates of Climate Sensitivity

Geophysical Research Letters, 2018
Eight atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) are forced with observed historical (1871–2010) monthly sea surface temperature and sea ice variations using the Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project II data set.

The Influence of Tree Infilling on Energy Partitioning, Vegetation Water Use, and Soil Water State in Sparse Conifer Stands of the Taiga Shield Ecoregion

Water Resources Research
Climate warming and permafrost thaw induced land cover change are well documented in much of the circumpolar north. The extensive exposure of Precambrian continental crust in Canada's Taiga Shield ecoregion could mean impacts of land cover change ...

Urban Ecohydrology: Accounting for Sub‐Grid Lateral Water and Energy Transfers in a Land Surface Model

Water Resources Research
Although urbanization fundamentally alters water and energy cycles, contemporary land surface models (LSMs) often do not include key urban vegetation processes that serve to transfer water and energy laterally across heterogeneous urban land types. Urban
