7 REMO: forcing and initialisation Regional climate model requires as boundary data Atmospheric conditions Wind speeds, Temperature, Humidity Sea surface temperature, ice cover Surface parameter fields As initial data in addition to those above Soil temperature and moisture Sources of initial and boundary meteorological data General circulation models Re-analysis data products, here ERA-Interim, ECMWF 03/06/2015Finnish Meteorological Institute7

8 REMO: basic characteristics Dynamic core of DWD operational model Physics and surface model from ECHAM Surface parameter maps for Surface background albedo, roughness length, vegetation ratio, leaf area index, forest fraction, soil field capacity Rotated spherical grid Close to rectangular  Resolution applied in Snowcarbo 0.1667° 03/06/2015Finnish Meteorological Institute8

9 REMO: surface parameter maps Standard land cover of USGS classified according to Olson cover types (n=100) Parameter values allocated to each Olson type Parameters aggregated from 1km USGS map to maps of resolution of the model In Snowcarbo the USGS map is replaced by National Corine Land Cover (CLC), European CLC and Globcover datasets  Allocations from new land cover classes to Olson ones needed 03/06/2015Finnish Meteorological Institute9

13 Modelling framework in Snowcarbo: JSBACH LSS of ECHAM to account for Surface energy partitioning – e.g. water balance Carbon cycle In offline coupled mode JSBACH is used to account for ecosystem carbon balance - CO2 exchange Process model Processes described down to as small scale as possible Limited by computational resources 03/06/2015Finnish Meteorological Institute13

26 Conclusions and future perspectives  Assimilation and emissions of CO2 in ecosystems explicitly modeled  Offline coupled REMO – JSBACH framework produces CO2 balance in high temporal and in relatively high regional resolution  National level estimates of CO2 balance can be extracted from the regional maps To be done  Evaluation of the results against CO2 flux and concentration data  Adjustment of the relevant parameters in order to produce better regional estimates 03/06/2015Finnish Meteorological Institute26
