• Global hydrology 2015: State, trends, and directions (2015, positive): “…first global surface lithology maps [ Hartmann and Moos-dorf , 2012] permeability maps [ Gleeson et al ., 2011, 2014] and global groundwater models [ Fan et al ., 2013; De Graaf et al ., 2015] have seen the light, but they only touch upon the problem of accurately representing sub-surface water…”
• Expanding the role of reactive transport models in critical zone processes (2017, background): “For instance, groundwater has been found to profoundly impact wetland formation and vegetation gradients (Fan, 2015; Fan et al., 2013).”
• High‐resolution modeling of human and climate impacts on global water resources (2016, methodology): “Simulated groundwater heads of both runs (pristine and human) have been evaluated against measured data [Fan et al., 2013].”
• Predicting crop yields and soil‐plant nitrogen dynamics in the US Corn Belt (2020, background): “Excessive moisture is most damaging in poorly drained soils with shallow water tables, which are present in a large portion of cropland in the US Midwest (Fan et al., 2013; Rizzo et al., 2018).”
• Mapping the global depth to bedrock for land surface modeling (2017, background): “Understanding the global pattern of underground boundaries such as groundwater and bedrock occurrence is of continuous interest to Earth and geosciences [Schenk and Jackson, 2005; Fan et al., 2013].”
