Projected U.S. drought extremes through the twenty-first century with vapor pressure deficit

Abstract Global warming is expected to enhance drought extremes in the United States throughout the twenty-first century. Projecting these changes can be complex in regions with large variability in atmospheric and soil moisture on small spatial scales. Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) is a valuable mea...
