Revisiting and Improving Soil Surface Resistance Schemes for Land Surface Modeling
Abstract Accurate representation of soil evaporation is critical for understanding land‐atmosphere interactions and improving climate simulations, where soil surface resistance plays a key regulatory role. However, existing schemes differ substantially and lack systematic evaluation.

The Growing Role of Evaporative Demand in Driving Record‐Breaking Droughts in the Amazon Basin
Abstract Amazon droughts have historically been driven by precipitation deficits, but recent escalating drought events highlight a regime shift toward “hot droughts.” By decomposing historical drought drivers (1979–2024), we show that rising evaporative demand (represented by potential evapotranspiration, PET) now acts as a primary driver of drought ...

Quantifying Land–Sea Connectivity Through Remotely Sensed River Plumes
Abstract Coastal ecosystems are highly influenced by riverine freshwater inputs, but the nature of these influences is dynamic and hard to characterize. Here we present a method that leverages remote sensing data of river plumes to quantify land–sea connectivity.

Abstract Using satellite‐derived dust optical depth (DOD), reanalysis meteorology, and a global topsoil flash drought (TSFD) inventory for 2003–2022, we find that TSFD events are associated with increased dust loading at the global scale. During TSFD events, 44.7% of land pixels exhibited positive DOD anomalies.
