8、mapping relationship1. IntroductionThis users guide provide the user with the coding implementation, and operating instructions for the Common Land Model (CoLM) which is the land surface parameterization used in offline mode or with the global climate models and regional climate models. The developm

9、ent of the Common Land Model (hereafter we call CLM initial version) can be described as the work of a community effort. Initial software specifications and development focused on evaluating the best features of existing land models. The model performance has been validated in very extensive field d

10、ata included sites adopted by the Project for Intercomparison of Land-surface Parameterization Schemes (Cabauw, Valdai, Red-Arkansas river basin) and others FIFE, BOREAS, HAPEX-MOBILHY, ABRACOS, Sonoran Desert, GSWP, LDAS. The model has been coupled with the NCAR Community Climate Model (CCM3). Docu

11、mentation for the CLM initial version is provided by Dai et al. (2001) while the coupling with CCM3 is described in Zeng et al. (2002). The model was introduced to the modeling community in Dai et al. (2003).The CLM initial version was adopted as the Community Land Model (CLM2.0) for use with the Co

12、mmunity Atmosphere Model (CAM2.0) and version 2 of the Community Climate System Model (CCSM2.0). The current version of Community Land Model, CLM3.0, was released in June 2004 as part of the CCSM3.0 release (). The Community Land Model (CLM3.0) is radically different from CLM initial version, partic

13、ularly from a software engineering perspective, and the great advancements in the areas of carbon cycling, vegetation dynamics, and river routing. The major differences between CLM 2.0 and CLM initial version are: 1) the biome-type land cover classification scheme was replaced with a plant functiona

14、l type (PFT) representation with the specification of PFTs and leaf area index from satellite data; 2) the parameterizations for vegetation albedo and vertical burying of vegetation by snow; 3) canopy scaling, leaf physiology, and soil water limitations on photosynthesis to resolve deficiencies indi

15、cated by the coupling to a dynamic vegetation model; 4) vertical heterogeneity in soil texture was implemented to improve coupling with a dust emission model; 5) a river routing model was incorporated to improve the fresh water balance over oceans; 6) numerous modest changes were made to the paramet

16、erizations to conform to the strict energy and water balance requirements of CCSM; 7) Further substantial software development was also required to meet coding standards. Besides the changes from a software engineering perspective, the differences between CLM3.0 and CLM2.0 are: 1) several improvemen

17、ts to biogeophysical parameterizations to correct deficiencies; 2) stability terms were added to the formulation for 2-m air temperature to correct this; 3) the equation was modified to correct a discontinuity in the equation that relates the bulk density of newly fallen snow to atmospheric temperat

18、ure; 4) a new formulation was implemented that provides for variable aerodynamic resistance with canopy density; 5) the vertical distribution of lake layers was modified to allow for more accurate computation of ground heat flux; 6) a fix was implemented for negative round-off level soil ice caused

19、by sublimation; 7) a fix was implemented to correct roughness lengths for non-vegetated areas. Documentation for the Community Land Model (CLM3.0) was provided by Oleson et al. (2004). The simulations of CLM2.0 coupling with the Community Climate are described in Bonan et al. (2002). The simulations

20、 of CLM3.0 with the Community Climate System Model (CCSM3.0) are summarized in the Special Issue of Journal of Climate by Dickinson et al. (2005), Bonan and S. Levis (2005).Concurrent with the development of the Community Land Model, the CLM initial version was undergoing further development at Geor

21、gia Institute of Technology and Beijing Normal University in leaf temperature, photosynthesis and stomatal calculation. Big-leaf treatment by CLM initial version and CLM3.0 that treat a canopy as a single leaf tend to overestimate fluxes of CO2 and water vapor. Models that differentiate between sunl

22、it and shaded leaves largely overcome these problems. A one-layered, two-big-leaf submodel for photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, leaf temperature, and energy fluxes was necessitated to the CLM initial version that is not in the CLM3.0. It includes 1) an improved two stream approximation model of

23、 radiation transfer of the canopy, with attention to singularities in its solution and with separate integrations of radiation absorption by sunlit and shaded fractions of canopy; 2) a photosynthesisstomatal conductance model for sunlit and shaded leaves separately, and for the simultaneous transfer

24、s of CO2 and water vapor into and out of the leafleaf physiological properties (i.e., leaf nitrogen concentration, maximum potential electron transport rate, and hence photosynthetic capacity) vary throughout the plant canopy in response to the radiationweight time-mean profile of photosynthetically

25、 active radiation (PAR), and the soil water limitation is applied to both maximum rates of leaf carbon uptake by Rubisco and electron transport, and the model scales up from leaf to canopy separately for all sunlit and shaded leaves; 3) a well-built quasi-NewtonRaphson method for simultaneous soluti

26、on of temperatures of the sunlit and shaded leaves. For avoiding confusion with the Community Land Model (CLM2.0, CLM3.0 versions), we name this improved version of the Common Land Model as CoLM.This was same as model now supported at NCAR. NCAR made extensive modifications mostly to make more compa

27、tible with NCAR CCM but some for better back compatibility with previous work with NCAR LSM. For purpose of using in a variety of other GCMs and mesoscale models, this adds a layer of complexity that may be unnecessary. Thus we have continued testing further developments with CLM initial version. So

28、me changes suggested by Land Model working groups of CCSM are also implemented, such as, stability terms to the formulation for 2-m air temperature, a new formulation for variable aerodynamic resistance with canopy density. CoLM is radically different from either CLM initial version or CLM2.0 or CLM

29、3.0, the differences could be summarized as follows, 1) Two big leaf model for leaf temperatures, photosynthesis-stomatal resistance;2) Two-stream approximation for canopy albedoes calculation with the solution for singularity point, and the calculations for radiation for the separated canopy (sunli

30、t and shaded); 3) New numerical scheme of iteration for leaf temperatures calculation; 4) New treatment for canopy interception with the consideration of the fraction of convection and large-scale precipitation; 5) Soil thermal and hydrological processes with the consideration of the depth to bedroc

31、k; 6) Surface runoff and sub-surface runoff; 7) Rooting fraction and the water stress on transpiration; 8) Use a grass tile 2m height air temperature in place of an area average for matching the routine meteorological observation;9) Perfect energy and water balance within every time-step; 10) A slab

32、 ocean-sea ice model; 11) Totally CoLM coding structure.The development of CoLM is trying to provide a version for public use and further development, and share the improvement contributed by many groups. The source code and datasets required to run the CoLM in offline mode can be obtained via the w

It would be particularly helpful if users would communicate such feedback informally and where possible share with us documented model applications including manuscripts, papers, procedures, or individual model development. 2. Creating and Running the Executable The CoLM mode

42、l can run as a stand alone executable where atmospheric forcing data is periodically read in. It can also be run as part of the Atmosphere Model where communication between the atmospheric and land models occurs via subroutine calls or the special coupler. In this Users Guide, well focus on the para

43、llel version CoLM, most of the scripts and setting of the serial version CoLM are similar to the parallel version, and even more simple.offline mode In order to build and run the CoLM on offline mode, two sample scripts: jobclm.csh, jobclm_single.csh, and the corresponding Makefile files are provide

44、d in run and the source code directories respectively. The scripts, jobclm.csh and jobclm_single.csh, create a model executable, determine the necessary input datasets, construct the input model namelist. Users must edit these scripts appropriately(适当的) in order to build and run the executable for t

45、heir particular requirements and in their particular environment. These scripts are provided only as an example to aid the novice user in getting the CoLM up and running as quickly as possible. The script jobclm_single.csh used to do a single-point offline simulation experiment, can be run with mini

46、mal user modification, assuming the user resets several environment variables at the top of the script. In particular, the user must set ROOTDIR to point to the full disk pathname of the model root directory. And the jobclm.csh is used to do a global or regional offline simulation experiment, usuall

47、y should be modified heavily to fulfill different requirements. The following part well explain the jobclm.csh in detail.The script jobclm.csh can be divided into five sections: 1) Specification of script environment variables, creating header file define.h; 2) Compiling the surface data making, ini

48、tial data making, time-loop calculation programs respectively.3) Surface data making, including input namelist creating; 4) Initial data making: including input namelist creating;5) Time-loop calculation: including input namelist creating. 2.1 Specification of script environment variables The user will generally not need to modify the section of jobclm.csh, except to: 1) set the model domain edges and the basic computer architecture,2) set the model path direc
