exchange processes into a multilayer atmosphere-soil-vegetation modelNagai, Haruyasu

This paper describes the incorporation of CO exchange processes into an atmosphere-soil-vegetation model SOLVEG and examination of its sensitivity and impact of its stomatal resistance calculation on the latent heat flux over a winter wheat field. The model framework for the heat and water exchanges between the atmosphere and ground surface was validated in the previous papers (Nagai 2002, 2003). In this study, CO exchange processes are incorporated in the model and the performance is examined. In the test calculation, the model simulated the CO flux at 2 m above the ground well as a whole. A sensitivity test to clarify uncertainties for the model settings and parameters showed that the CO production in the soil is the most important factor for the CO calculation. Also, the impact of the CO processes on the latent heat flux is discussed. The results indicate that the new model is effective and preferable to study surface exchanges of heat and water as well as CO.

This paper describes the improvement of an atmosphere-soil-vegetation model and the validation of the new model by observation. In the previous performance test using measured data, some limitations were revealed in the schemes for the canopy radiation transmission and the stomatal resistance calculation, and are improved in this study. By these improvements, the observed albedo and latent heat flux are simulated more properly than before. Results of comparisons between calculations and observations for a winter wheat field and a grassland indicate that the predictability and applicability are improved by the introduction of the new schemes.
