ABSTRACT Increasingly variable climate conditions are affecting crop production, leading to greater yield fluctuations, which in turn are impacting global food security. Introducing alleles from regions where the expected stress conditions occur, so‐called exotic alleles, could serve as a means to mitigate these effects. We examined the value of exotic

Functional traits can explain significant tree growth reductions in response to the 2018–2020 drought for a wide set of 71 species including angiosperms and gymnosperms. Moreover, four distinct response types emerged: ‘Sufferer’, ‘Late sufferer’, ‘Recoverer’ and ‘Resister’, with gymnosperms predominately appearing as ‘Sufferer’ and ‘Late sufferer ...

Uncertainty in the determination of soil hydraulic parameters and its influence on the performance of two hydrological models of different complexity [PDF]
Data of soil hydraulic properties forms often a limiting factor in unsaturated zone modelling, especially at the larger scales. Investigations for the hydraulic characterization of soils are time-consuming and costly, and the accuracy of the results ...

Interactions between dry-air entrainment, surface evaporation and convective boundary-layer development [PDF]
The influence of dry-air entrainment on surface heat fluxes and the convective boundary-layer (CBL) properties is studied for vegetated land surfaces, using a mixed-layer CBL model coupled to the Penman¿Monteith equation under a wide range of conditions.

Generalizability of machine learning models and empirical equations for the estimation of reference evapotranspiration from temperature in a semiarid region [PDF]
The Penman-Monteith equation is recommended for the estimation of reference evapotranspiration (ETo). However, it requires meteorological data that are commonly unavailable.

Graphical abstract summarizing the modelling experiments used to quantify streamflow elasticity to changes and temporal redistribution of precipitation across South America, highlighting stronger effects of seasonal redistribution and larger responses in humid climates. ABSTRACT This study examines the sensitivity of mean, high and low streamflows (i.e.
