The various areas that Youlong Xia examines in his Hydrology study include Atmospheric sciences and Soil horizon.
He has researched Water content in several fields, including Anomaly and Data assimilation.
His most cited work include:
- The community Noah land surface model with multiparameterization options (Noah-MP): 1. Model description and evaluation with local-scale measurements (918 citations)
- Continental-scale water and energy flux analysis and validation for the North American Land Data Assimilation System project phase 2 (NLDAS-2): 1. Intercomparison and application of model products (552 citations)
- The community Noah land surface model with multiparameterization options (Noah-MP): 2. Evaluation over global river basins (282 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Youlong Xia mainly focuses on Climatology, Data assimilation, Meteorology, Evapotranspiration and Surface runoff.
His Climatology research incorporates themes from Drainage basin, Precipitation, Spatial variability, Infiltration and Conditional probability distribution.
His Data assimilation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Weather and climate, Mesonet, Water resources, Anomaly and Hydrological modelling.
His primary area of study in Meteorology is in the field of Snow.
His work carried out in the field of Evapotranspiration brings together such families of science as Hydrometeorology, Soil water, Water balance, Statistics and Water content.
As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Surface runoff, focusing on Latent heat and, on occasion, Sensible heat.
