Long‐Term Capturability of Atmospheric Water on a Global Scale
Global warming has changed both the amount of global precipitation and the atmospheric capacity to retain water. In this paper, a novel definition of the long‐term Capturability of Atmospheric Water (CAW) based on horizontal atmospheric water transport is proposed, describing the ability of a certai...

| description | Global warming has changed both the amount of global precipitation and the atmospheric capacity to retain water. In this paper, a novel definition of the long‐term Capturability of Atmospheric Water (CAW) based on horizontal atmospheric water transport is proposed, describing the ability of a certain area to intercept and convert the atmospheric water transported by horizontal moisture flux into local precipitation. The significant decrease of the CAW in Amazon and Congo rainforests and Inside Greenland indicates that these areas were having less precipitation with the same water vapor in the past 42 years, while in Asia (especially China), CAW is showing a large‐scale increasing trend, verifying the regional humidifying. Considering the change of both the CAW and the background atmospheric water simultaneously, their mismatch degree is also investigated. The positive mismatch in Qinghai Tibet Plateau, Greenland, and the Andes, suggests higher susceptibility to climate change, and in the areas of negative mismatch (Amazon, Maritime Continent, southeastern China, the Eastern United States, India, and Japan), a more stable precipitation response to climate change is expected. The proposed concept of CAW provides a novel perspective to analyze the precipitation response to climate change on a global scale.
Key Points
A novel definition of long‐term Capturability of Atmospheric Water (CAW) based on horizontal transport is proposed
In the past 42 years, the CAW in the Amazon and Congo rainforests and the Greenland ice sheet has degraded significantly
