Abstract. Precipitation partitioning into blue (runoff) and green water (transpiration) flows is a fundamental hydroecological process shaping freshwater availability across vegetated and hydrological...

Large-scale irrigation changes local rainfall patterns, leading to more afternoon rain events 10 to 50 km downwind of irrigated areas. These findings will help constrain climate and weather forecastin...

The Water Stress Index (WSI), which is the ratio of human demand for to availability of blue water, is very uncertain in the present day but likely to show large unsustainable increase in some region...
