Atmospheric vapor pressure deficit (VPD) measures the difference between saturation vapor pressure and actual vapor pressure, and its variability is closely related to fire activity in the western United States (US). Here, we assess the forecast skill of

CO2 Fertilisation of Growth in Wild C4 Grasses may be Amplified by Upregulated Photosynthesis
ABSTRACT Rising atmospheric CO2 is expected to have limited direct effects on C4 photosynthesis because the carbon‐concentrating mechanism maintains near‐saturating CO2 at Rubisco. Consequently, growth responses of C4 plants to elevated CO2 (eCO2) are generally attributed to indirect improvements in plant water relations.

To reduce pressure on arable land and water resources, crops can be grown in controlled environments that allow one to recuperate water transpired by plants. This would reduce water demand and potentially allow the use of saline water.

Multidecadal Changes in Atmospheric Dryness Over East Asia Dominated by Internal Climate Variability
Abstract Summer near‐surface vapor pressure deficit (VPD), a key measure of atmospheric dryness, has increased markedly across East Asia since 1980, yet the relative roles of external forcing and internal variability (IV) in its multidecadal changes remain unclear.

Abstract Legacy oil and gas wells are an incompletely quantified source of greenhouse gas emissions and offer leakage pathways for subsurface gas migration if inadequately isolated. We present a high‐resolution, process‐based characterization of leakage dynamics at an integrity‐compromised legacy gas well in northeastern British Columbia using five ...

Large Overestimation of Projected Western U.S. Wildfire Burned Forest Area With Warming
Wildfires are projected to increase with warming in the western United States. Since vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is highly correlated with wildfire burned area historically, many studies have argued that large projected increases in VPD with warming ...

In the context of global warming, agricultural drought risks are exacerbated by increasing atmospheric aridity. This study pioneers the application of the Bayesian Estimator of Abrupt Change, Seasonality, and Trend (BEAST) algorithm at a provincial scale

Stomatal responses to closing stimuli are disturbed after long-term exposure of plants to low vapour pressure deficit (VPD). The mechanism behind this disturbance is not fully understood.

Furrow tillage resolves the conventional‐vs.‐no‐tillage trade‐off by simultaneously cutting CO2 efflux to 2.0–3.0 g C m−2 d−1 and unlocking high nutrient availability for the rice rhizosphere. This scalable agronomic solution strengthens soil health, enhances plant physiology, reshapes microbial metabolism, and shifts paddy systems toward a net ...
