Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of ecosystem dynamics, plant geography and terrestrial carbon cycling in the LPJ dynamic global vegetation model
Stephen Sitch,Benjamin Smith,Iain Colin Prentice,Almut Arneth,Alberte Bondeau,Wolfgang Cramer,Jed O. Kaplan,Samuel Levis,Samuel Levis,Wolfgang Lucht,Martin T. Sykes,Kirsten Thonicke,Sergey Venevsky +12 more
TL;DR: The LPJ model as mentioned in this paper combines process-based, large-scale representations of terrestrial vegetation dynamics and land-atmosphere carbon and water exchanges in a modular framework, including feedback through canopy conductance between photosynthesis and transpiration and interactive coupling between these 'fast' processes and other ecosystem processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parameterization improvements and functional and structural advances in version 4 of the Community Land Model
David M. Lawrence,Keith W. Oleson,Mark Flanner,Peter E. Thornton,Sean Swenson,Peter Lawrence,Xubin Zeng,Zong-Liang Yang,Samuel Levis,Koichi Sakaguchi,Gordon B. Bonan,Andrew G. Slater +11 more
TL;DR: The Community Land Model (CLM) as discussed by the authors is the land component of the Community Climate System Model (CCSM) and has been extended with a carbon-nitrogen (CN) biogeochemical model that is prognostic with respect to vegetation, litter, and soil carbon and nitrogen states.
Journal ArticleDOI
An integrated biosphere model of land surface processes, terrestrial carbon balance, and vegetation dynamics
Jonathan A. Foley,I. Colin Prentice,Navin Ramankutty,Samuel Levis,David Pollard,Steven Sitch,Alex Haxeltine +6 more
TL;DR: The Integrated Biosphere Simulator (IBIS) as mentioned in this paper is a terrestrial biosphere model that integrates a wide range of biophysical, physiological, and ecological processes in a single, physically consistent modeling framework.
