Abstract:

People live on land, exploit its water and natural resources, and experience day-to-day weather which is strongly affected by feedback with the land surface.
The importance of a credible representation of land surface processes, including heat fluxes, snow, soil moisture, vegetation, turbulent transfer and runoff, continue to be ranked highly on the list of the most relevant yet complex and poorly represented features in state-of-the-art climate models since several systematic biases and uncertainties persist.
For these reasons, it is fundamental to investigate the abilities and limits of state-of-the-art land surface models to improve the next generation of climate models.
Recent developments at CMCC have focused on many aspects of land such as soil, land use and vegetation. In particular, the impact of soil characteristics on land-atmosphere interactions and land use on soil organic carbon, and vegetation phenology have been investigated in the latest analysis.
