Afternoon rain more likely over drier soils

CM Taylor, RAM de Jeu, F Guichard, PP Harris… - Nature, 2012 - nature.com
Land surface properties, such as vegetation cover and soil moisture, influence the partitioning
of radiative energy between latent and sensible heat fluxes in daytime hours. During dry …

PICRUSt2 for prediction of metagenome functions

…, JR Zaneveld, SN Yurgel, JR Brown, CM Taylor… - Nature …, 2020 - nature.com
To the Editor—One limitation of microbial community marker-gene sequencing is that it
does not provide information about the functional composition of sampled communities. …

Regions of strong coupling between soil moisture and precipitation

…, T Oki, K Oleson, A Pitman, YC Sud, CM Taylor… - Science, 2004 - science.org
Previous estimates of land-atmosphere interaction (the impact of soil moisture on precipitation)
have been limited by a lack of observational data and by the model dependence of …

PICRUSt2: An improved and extensible approach for metagenome inference

…, J Zaneveld, SN Yurgel, JR Brown, CM Taylor… - BioRxiv, 2019 - biorxiv.org
One major limitation of microbial community marker gene sequencing is that it does not

Impoundments and the decline of freshwater mussels: a case study of an extinction gradient

CC Vaughn, CM Taylor - Conservation Biology, 1999 - Wiley Online Library
One major factor leading to the imperilment of freshwater mussels ( Bivalvia, Unionidae) has
been the large‐scale impoundment of rivers. We examined the distribution and abundance …
