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 ...
A Simple Groundwater Scheme for Hydrological and Climate Applications: Description and Offline Evaluation over France
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: espite their potential influences on surface water and climate, groundwater processes are generally not represented in climate models. Here, a simple groundwater scheme including two-dimensional flow dynamics and accounting ...
Analysis of Near-Surface Atmospheric Variables: Validation of the SAFRAN Analysis over France
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Système d?analyse fournissant des renseignements atmosphériques à la neige (SAFRAN) is a mesoscale atmospheric analysis system for surface variables. It produces an analysis at the hourly time step using ground data ...
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 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 ...
