Abstract

A coupled atmospheric/land‐surface model covering the conterminous United States with an associated 1‐hour atmospheric data assimilation cycle, the Mesoscale Analysis and Prediction System (MAPS), has been improved to include a snow accumulation/melting scheme and also parameterization of processes in frozen soil. The new aspects of the land‐surface model are described in this paper, along with detailed one‐dimensional (1‐D) tests using an 18‐year observation data set from Valday, Russia. These tests show that the MAPS 1‐D soil/vegetation/snow model is capable of providing accurate simulations over multiyear periods at locations with significant snow cover and frozen soil. A statistical analysis of the tests shows the expected improvement in snow depth, skin temperature, and especially in runoff from inclusion of these additional surface processes during the spring melting season. This performance in 1‐D tests is a necessary prerequisite for robust long‐term behavior of soil temperature and moisture fields and other components of the hydrological cycle in the 3‐D MAPS coupled assimilation cycle.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
