  1. 1. Probing the Precipitationshed : A quantification of the biophysical dimensions of terrestrial moisture recycling

    Författare :Patrick W. Keys; Line Gordon; Steve Lyon; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; moisture recycling; precipitation; evaporation; variability; ecosystem services; naturresurshushållning; Natural Resources Management;

    Sammanfattning : Terrestrial moisture recycling is the phenomena whereby water evaporates from the land surface, travels through the atmosphere, and fall as precipitation downwind. The interaction of societies with this branch of the hydrological cycle, though critical to the productive functioning of ecosystems around the planet, remains poorly understood. LÄS MER

  2. 2. The Precipitationshed : Concepts, Methods, and Applications
