By analyzing the difference of the SSM changes between different types of climate change scenarios, it is found that this difference associated with SSM is obvious only when precipitation changes are considered. Besides, the greater difference mainly occurs in north of 35°N, where the semi-arid zone is mainly situated. It demonstrates that, in the semi-arid region, SSM is more sensitive to the precipitation variability. Compared with precipitation variability, temperature variability seems to play little role in the variations of SSM.展开更多
