Groundwater evapotranspiration (ETGW) and water table dynamics represent a pivotal interplay between subsurface hydrological processes and the atmospheric demands of evaporation and plant ...

During the last ice age, storms soaked the now-arid Southwestern U.S., while today's rainy Pacific Northwest remained relatively dry. As global temperatures rose and ice sheets retreated, those storms ...

A key challenge for biologists is to document and explain global patterns of diversification in a wide range of environments. Here, we explore patterns of continental-scale diversification in a ...
