Sentences with phrase «hydrological conditions»

Hydrological conditions during the summer thaw are also important.

Although our results are based on an idealized modeling framework that captures only naturally occurring climate variations, they clearly suggest that decadal climate predictions for soil hydrological conditions are feasible and may become beneficial for forestry, water management, and agriculture.

The carbon biogeochemical cycle in CLM4 calculates changes in vegetation and wildfire occurrences, both of which depend on hydrological conditions (Thonicke et al. 2001; Kloster et al. 2010).

Regulations already in place at the state level reflect local knowledge of geological and hydrological conditions.

Our study has identified soil water predictability even beyond the interannual timescales, thus extending the potential predictive range of hydrological conditions over North America to almost a decade.

In the fire scheme of CLM4, wildfire occurrence in each grid box is parameterized in terms of fuel density obtained from the vegetation carbon, hydrological conditions, and temperature (Thonicke et al. 2001; Kloster et al. 2010).

Drier conditions resulting from suppressed rainfall can induce more dust and smoke due to the burning of drier vegetation (Ramanathan et al., 2001), thus affecting both regional and global hydrological cycles (Wang, 2004).

As noted in the TAR (McAvaney et al., 2001), vegetation change during the mid-Holocene likely triggered changes in the hydrological cycle, explaining the wet conditions that prevailed in the Sahel region that were further enhanced by ocean feedbacks (Ganopolski et al., 1998; Braconnot et al., 1999), although soil moisture may have counteracted some of these feedbacks (Levis et al., 2004).
