Land Surface Model (LSM Version 1.0) for Ecological, Hydrological, andAtmospheric Studies: Technical Description and User's Guide

摘要

This technical note describes version 1 of the LSM land surface model. In thismodel, land surface processes are described in terms of biophysical fluxes (latent heat, sensible heat, momentum, reflected solar radiation, emitted longwave radiation) and biochemical fluxes (CO2) that depend on the ecological and hydrologic state of the land. Consequently, ecological and hydrological sub-models are needed to simulate temporal changes in terrestrial biomass and water.
