Tracing the influence of terrestrial evapotranspiration on atmospheric water vapor and the water vapor greenhouse effect
AGU 2024
atmospheric sciences | 13 december 2024
Marysa M. Lague, Gregory R. Quetin, Kyle Heyblom
Water vapor accounts for roughly 50% of the modern greenhouse effect. The water vapor greenhouse effect is typically thought of as a feedback to force...

Precipitation Response Over Land to Evapotranspiration-Driven Warming Is Different Than the Response to Radiatively-Driven Warming
AGU 2024
global environmental change | 09 december 2024
Benjamin Buchovecky, Claire Zarakas, Marysa M. Lag...
Both canonical theory and climate model simulations predict an increase in globally averaged precipitation with radiatively-driven surface warming. Ho...

SwampLand vs. Desertland: using the extreme end-cases of possible terrestrial evaporation to explore the role of evapotranspiration from land in the global climate system
THE GLOBAL WATER CYCLE: COUPLING AND EXCHANGES BETWEEN THE OCEAN, LAND, CRYOSPHERE, AND ATMOSPHERE I POSTER
global environmental change | 14 december 2023
Marysa M. Lague, Gregory R. Quetin, William R. Boo...
Decreasing evaporation from the land surface has a direct warming effect on land by reducing latent cooling. However, it also modifies surface (and gl...
