Warmer temperatures evaporate critically important snowpack, convert snow to rain, and dry out soils, which increases the frequency and severity of arid conditions in California.

Even in areas where precipitation does not decrease, these increases in surface evaporation and loss of water from plants lead to more rapid drying of soils if the effects of higher temperatures are not offset by other changes (such as reduced wind speed or increased humidity).5 As soil dries out, a larger proportion of the incoming heat from the sun goes into heating the soil and adjacent air rather than evaporating its moisture, resulting in hotter summers under drier climatic conditions.6

The warm colours used to denote above - average temperatures are used to denote regions that are drier than average, while shades of blue denote above - average precipitation, relative humidity or soil moisture.

For example, studies of temperatures in Arizona and Mexico have shown that lost vegetation from severe overgrazing and other careless practices caused the soil surface to dry.

Also, when soils are dry, the Sun's energy goes exclusively into raising the temperature, rather than being split between that and evaporating some water.

Warm temperatures increase the rate of evaporation from parched soils and critically dry rivers, lakes, and streams — exacerbating the impacts of existing precipitation deficits.

With higher global temperatures, he said, the soil would become drier.

The hotter and drier conditions were a recipe for more wildfires — with lightning strikes igniting more easily in drier soils and vegetation, and higher temperatures spreading the flames.

Thawing permafrost is also expected to alter area landscapes and make local ecosystems more susceptible to long - term damage, in part because permafrost degradation can lead to significant changes in local soil temperatures and moisture levels.14, 20,21 Soils on or near the banks of thermokarst ponds tend to be much drier than those on level tundra, owing to higher soil temperatures and drainage.14, 20,21 On the Seward Peninsula, the banks of these ponds host trees (usually spruces) and shrubs that are otherwise usually absent in the characteristically treeless tundra.14, 21

From the Southwest to the Great Lakes, temperatures have been so high and rainfall so low that the drying effect of warmer air temperatures far exceeded what little precipitation there's been, resulting in moisture being drawn out of soils.
