Subsurface storage capacity influences climate–evapotranspiration interactions in three western United States catchments

In the winter-wet, summer-dry forests of the western United States, total annual evapotranspiration (ET) varies with precipitation and temperature. Geologically mediated drainage and storage properties, however, may strongly influence these relationships between climate and ET. We use a physically b...
