Technical note: Precipitation-phase partitioning at landscape scales to regional scales [PDF]
Water management throughout the western United States largely relies on the partitioning of cool season mountain precipitation into rain and snow, particularly snow as it maximizes available water for warm season use.

Machine learning shows a limit to rain-snow partitioning accuracy when using near-surface meteorology [PDF]
Partitioning precipitation into rain and snow with near-surface meteorology is a well-known challenge. However, whether a limit exists to its potential performance remains unknown.

Partitioning of Large-Scale and Local-Scale Precipitation Events by Means of Spatio-Temporal Precipitation Regimes on Corsica [PDF]
The island of Corsica in the western Mediterranean is characterized by a pronounced topography in which local breeze systems develop in the diurnal cycle.

Drivers of drought-induced shifts in the water balance through a Budyko approach [PDF]
An inconsistent relationship between precipitation and runoff has been observed between drought and non-drought periods, with less runoff usually observed during droughts than would be expected based solely on precipitation deficit.

Climate impacts of parameterizing subgrid variation and partitioning of land surface heat fluxes to the atmosphere with the NCAR CESM1.2 [PDF]
All current global climate models (GCMs) utilize only grid-averaged surface heat fluxes to drive the atmosphere, and thus their subgrid horizontal variations and partitioning are absent. This can result in many simulation biases.

Conceptual analysis: What signals might plant canopies send via stemflow?
As watersheds are complex systems that are difficult to directly study, the streams that drain them are often sampled to search for watershed “signals.” These signals include the presence and/or abundance of isotopes, types of sediment, organisms ...

The interception of precipitation by plant canopies can alter the amount and spatial distribution of water inputs to ecosystems. We asked whether canopy interception could locally augment water inputs to shrubs by their crowns funneling (freshwater ...
