New Columbia Engineering study–first to investigate the long-term effect of soil moisture-atmosphere feedbacks in drylands–finds that soil moisture exerts a negative feedback on surface water availability in drylands, offsetting some of the expected decline
New York, NY–January 4, 2021–Scientists have thought that global warming…
