Das BayCEER-Kolloquium ist eine interdisziplinäre Plattform für Studierende, Wissenschaftler*innen und Interessierte: I.d.R. wöchentlich (in der Vorlesungszeit) werden Vorträge im Themenfeld Ökologie und Umweltwissenschaften gehalten, die anschließend im Plenum und in lockerer Atmosphäre während des Postkolloquiums diskutiert werden können. Gerne kann das Mittagessen mitgebracht werden (Brown Bag Lunch).

Improving land models through the use of surface temperature evaluations

When studying the earth’s surface, we largely rely on surface observations, remote sensing, and modeling, which form a three-legged stool. Each of these methods can only provide a partial confirmation of reality and requires the support of the other two. As part of this triad, land models are a necessary tool for understanding the earth system, yet models are largely unconstrained: process representations vary between models and parameter values are unknown. As a result, when land models are intercompared, there is large divergence in simulated values, eroding the value of one of the crucial tools for understanding the earth’s surface.

We demonstrate how observed surface temperature (Ts) can inform model evaluation and development. Ts is the diagnostic variable of the modeled surface energy balance and is an ideal supplement to typical model evaluations, which lack information on the surface energy balance. This study focuses on modeling seasonal snow packs, but many of the lessons learned are transferable to land modeling in general.

Using Ts, we identify different types of errors in the surface energy balance for future use in model development and evaluation. Many of the modeled Ts responses are governed by feedbacks between radiative and turbulent fluxes. Based on these results we recommend the inclusion of surface temperature observations in future studies, as these types of observations are cheap, robust, and provide critical missing information on the surface energy balance.
