Drying Soil Moisture Dominates Enhancing Summer Soil Moisture‐Temperature Coupling Under Climate Change

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Global warming enhances soil moisture (SM)‐temperature (SM‐T) coupling, exacerbating extreme climates. However, the mechanisms and future trends of this enhancement remain inadequately understood. Analysis of multiple reanalysis data sets shows that during summer seasons of 1981–2020, approximately 45.6% of global lands exhibit a significant ...
