The Influence of the Inclusion of Soil Freezing on Simulations by a Soil–Vegetation–Atmosphere Transfer Scheme
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The interactions between the soil, biosphere, and atmosphere (ISBA) land surface parameterization scheme has been modified to include soil ice. The liquid water equivalent volumetric ice content is modeled using two ...
Impact of an Exponential Profile of Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity within the ISBA LSM: Simulations over the Rhône Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study focuses on the influence of an exponential profile of saturated hydraulic conductivity, ksat, with soil depth on the water budget simulated by the Interaction Soil Biosphere Atmosphere (ISBA) land surface model ...
The Relationship between Intermodel Differences and Surface Energy Balance Complexity in the Rhône-Aggregation Intercomparison Project
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Six modes of complexity of the Chameleon land surface model (CHASM) are used to explore the relationship between the complexity of the surface energy balance (SEB) formulation and the capacity of the model to explain ...
Road Surface Condition Forecasting in France
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A numerical model designed to simulate the evolution of a snow layer on a road surface was forced by meteorological forecasts so as to assess its potential for use within an operational suite for road management in winter. ...
The Plumbing of Land Surface Models: Benchmarking Model Performance
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Protocol for the Analysis of Land Surface Models (PALS) Land Surface Model Benchmarking Evaluation Project (PLUMBER) was designed to be a land surface model (LSM) benchmarking intercomparison. Unlike the traditional ...
The Rhône-Aggregation Land Surface Scheme Intercomparison Project: An Overview
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Rhône-Aggregation (Rhône-AGG) Land Surface Scheme (LSS) intercomparison project is an initiative within the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX)/Global Land?Atmosphere System Study (GLASS) panel of the World ...
The Representation of Snow in Land Surface Schemes: Results from PILPS 2(d)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Twenty-one land surface schemes (LSSs) performed simulations forced by 18 yr of observed meteorological data from a grassland catchment at Valdai, Russia, as part of the Project for the Intercomparison of Land-Surface ...
Cabauw Experimental Results from the Project for Intercomparison of Land-Surface Parameterization Schemes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the Project for Intercomparison of Land-Surface Parameterization Schemes phase 2a experiment, meteorological data for the year 1987 from Cabauw, the Netherlands, were used as inputs to 23 land-surface flux schemes ...
Sensitivity of Latent Heat Flux from PILPS Land-Surface Schemes to Perturbations of Surface Air Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the PILPS Phase 2a experiment, 23 land-surface schemes were compared in an off-line control experiment using observed meteorological data from Cabauw, the Netherlands. Two simple sensitivity experiments were also ...
