CO2-plant effects do not account for the gap between dryness indices and projected dryness impacts in CMIP6 or CMIP5

CO2-plant effects do not account for the gap between dryness indices and projected dryness impacts in CMIP6 or CMIP5

Recent studies have found that terrestrial dryness indices like the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI), and Aridity Index calculated from future climate model projections are mostly negative, implying a drying land surface with warming. Y...
