Revisiting GLACE: Understanding the Role of the Land Surface in Land–Atmosphere Coupling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Global Land?Atmosphere Coupling Experiment (GLACE) established a method for quantifying and comparing the influence of soil moisture on the atmosphere in AGCMs. The models included in the GLACE intercomparison displayed ...
Evaluating the Performance of Hydrological Models via Cross-Spectral Analysis: Case Study of the Thames Basin, United Kingdom
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ine distributed hydrological models, forced with common meteorological inputs, simulated naturalized daily discharge from the Thames basin for 1963?2001. While model-dependent evaporative losses are critical for modeling ...
How Well Can Land-Surface Models Represent the Diurnal Cycle of Turbulent Heat Fluxes?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
WATCH: Current Knowledge of the Terrestrial Global Water Cycle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ater-related impacts are among the most important consequences of increasing greenhouse gas concentrations. Changes in the global water cycle will also impact the carbon and nutrient cycles and vegetation patterns. There ...
The Plumbing of Land Surface Models: Is Poor Performance a Result of Methodology or Data Quality?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Protocol for the Analysis of Land Surface Models (PALS) Land Surface Model Benchmarking Evaluation Project (PLUMBER) illustrated the value of prescribing a priori performance targets in model intercomparisons. It showed ...
Multimodel Estimate of the Global Terrestrial Water Balance: Setup and First Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ix land surface models and five global hydrological models participate in a model intercomparison project [Water Model Intercomparison Project (WaterMIP)], which for the first time compares simulation results of these ...
Developing a Research Strategy to Better Understand, Observe, and Simulate Urban Atmospheric Processes at Kilometer to Subkilometer Scales
