A deep learning-based hybrid model of global terrestrial evaporation
Global evaporation is a key climatic process that remains highly uncertain. Here, the authors shed light on this process with a novel hybrid model that integrates a deep learning representation of ecosystem stress within a physics-based framework.

The generalized Pareto distributions (GPDs) play an important role in the statistics of extremes. We point various problems with the likelihood-based inference for the index parameter α of the GPDs, and develop alternative testing strategies, which do ...

Land–atmosphere feedbacks contribute to crop failure in global rainfed breadbaskets
Global crop yields are highly dependent on climate variability, with the largest agricultural failures frequently occurring during extremely dry and hot years.

Species conflict at Earth’s edges – Contests, climate, and coveted resources
Direct conflict between species is an infrequently witnessed biological phenomenon. Potential drivers of such contests can include climate change, especially at Earth’s high elevation and latitudinal extremes where temperatures warm 2–5 times faster than
