Soil moisture drove vegetation change on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau
Soil moisture constraints override atmospheric aridity in governing vegetation dynamics across the warming Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, with regional variation depending on basin hydrogeography.

Modified isotope model estimates higher advected moisture fraction
Modified isotopic mixing model for estimating precipitation moisture sources in southwest China using transpiration ratios and leaf area index constraints.

Wind shear strengthens soil moisture effects on thunderstorm growth
Wind shear and soil moisture interact to enhance rapid thunderstorm growth, offering new predictability for severe convective initiation across Africa and beyond.
