Development of high resolution land surface parameters for the Community Land Model

For the purpose of this study, the quantita- tive assessment of changes in land use and land cover- age between 1979-2004 focused on the land immediately around

The results about the pattern of land surface protection shows that shrub vegetation presents the highest protection to the surface during the entire study, and a plot with

Spatial distributions of remote sensing based GVF, ISA, albedo, and LAI (a, e, i and m) compared with those based on Noah/UCM lookup tables (b, f, j and n) and simulated maps

dust emission scheme requires parameters at spatial and temporal scales relevant to dust emission: the aerodynamic roughness length used by regional and global land surface models

The derived upscaling laws relate mean and variance (first and second moment) of subgrid- scale heterogeneity to a corresponding effective parameter at grid-scale. Explicit

Landsat ETM+, Terra MODIS and NOAA-AVHRR sur- face temperature and spectral reflectance were used to infer further surface parameters and radiant- and energy flux den- sities

The established values of rate constants for reaction and rate constants for deactivation k D , based on equation (13) allow definion of the change of catalase
