Soil moisture-atmosphere feedbacks mitigate declining water availability in drylands

Sha Zhou et al.

Summary: Soil moisture strongly influences future changes in precipitation minus evapotranspiration, particularly in drylands. A negative feedback from soil moisture can offset a significant portion of the expected decline in dryland precipitation minus evapotranspiration, mainly by regulating evapotranspiration and atmospheric moisture transport.

No projected global drylands expansion under greenhouse warming

Alexis Berg et al.

Summary: Model projections using an atmospheric aridity proxy show future expansion of drylands under climate change, but an alternative index based on ecohydrological variables suggests no global expansion. The aridity index overestimates changes compared to the ecohydrological index, indicating differing sensitivities to hydroclimate change and opposite responses to increasing atmospheric CO2. Despite greater uncertainties, climate model ecohydrological projections do not support global drylands expansion under greenhouse warming as previously claimed based on atmospheric aridity.

Jonathan Spinoni et al.

Summary: This study predicts the impact of global warming on population and land-use exposure to drought risk, showing that even at low global warming levels, the frequency and severity of drought will significantly increase, requiring extensive mitigation and adaptation efforts to avoid the severe impacts of climate change.
