Abstract During 1961–2012, the regional average annual potential evapotranspiration (PET) of Southwest China (SWC) and the four subregions (named as SR1, SR2, SR3, and SR4) showed different decreases (excluding SR3); while the breakpoint analysis suggested that PET changes (i.e., sign and magnitude)...

As an essential variable in linking water, carbon, and energy cycles, evapotranspiration (ET) is difficult to measure. Remote sensing, reanalysis, and land surface model-based ET products offer comprehensive alternatives at different spatio-temporal intervals, but their performance varies. In this s...

Abstract Intensified droughts have been weakening global vegetation productivity, yet how the sensitivity of vegetation productivity to drought changes over time is not well known. Here, using the simulated long‐term gross primary production (GPP) with an improved two‐leaf light use efficiency model...

Abstract This study investigates reference evapotranspiration (ET 0 ) trends in China from 1960 to 2012 based on the Penman–Monteith equation and gridded meteorological measurements. Under the combined impacts of factors influencing ET 0 (i.e., net radiation [RN], mean temperature [TAVE], vapour pre...

Abstract Land use and cover change (LUCC) is an important anthropogenic forcing of the climate system. Previous studies have demonstrated that LUCC significantly impacts both mean and extreme temperatures. In this study, we explored the multimodel performance of simulating LUCC‐induced asymmetric ef...

ABSTRACT Land use and land cover change (LUCC) is an important external forcing agent of climate change. The comparison of current (2000 A.D.) with historical (1850 A.D.) land cover maps suggests that most of the Eurasian continent has experienced robust and significant LUCC during the past century,...

Abstract Indochina is one of the key areas affecting the East Asian summer monsoon and its thermal condition can modulate the prevailing wind and water vapour transport, especially in the early stages of establishment of the summer monsoon. Previous studies emphasized the climatic effect of the seas...

In this study, we estimated the respective contributions of precipitation and reference evapotranspiration (ET 0 ) to annual SPEI‐3 (3‐month Standardized Precipitation‐Evapotranspiration Index) anomalies over southwest China (SWC) using numerical experiments. Results show that the dominant factor (i...

Choosing effective models for accurately estimating potential evapotranspiration (PET) is essential in various fields, including climatology, ecology, hydrology, and agronomy. However, many currently dominant PET products rely on multiple models with default parameters, which can introduce uncertain...
