Short summary
In the real hydrological Earth system, the relationships between variables are not constant. This study employed advanced statistical models, incorporating physical mechanisms to examine how evaporation stress responds to key factors over time. We found that stronger soil drought effects can be expected in areas undergoing rapid greening. This study may enhance the comprehension of evaporation stress, help optimize parameters in Earth system models, and promote greening initiatives.
