Untersuchung und Quantifizierung der Rückkopplung zwischen der Atmosphäre und dem System Boden-Vegetation unter dem Einfluss des Klimawandels
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
In this project the following key findings were achieved: The land surface and atmosphere interact throughout the atmospheric boundary layer, i.e. energy and water fluxes at the surface impact the soil moisture and temperature profiles throughout the atmosphere up to 2000 m height depending on the state of the atmosphere. - Including a crop growth model in a very high resolution (~3 km) regional climate model in Germany impacts the temperature at the order of 1-2K during the growing season, depending on the region. Mostly it improves the results. The signal is in the order of magnitude of current model biases. Therefore it is recommended to further advance the crop model for other crops and investigate the regional dependence of crop parameters and drill dates. - A multiyear record of energy-fluxes and weather data over multiple crops and soils revealed their dependence not only on the weather but also on the crop, crop development stages which vary depending on the year’s weather, and soil moisture. - The observational strategy developed within SABLE (Surface Atmosphere Boundary Layer Experiment) was successfully extended within the international Land-Atmosphere Feedback Experiment (LAFE) in the central United States. - An ensemble of regional climate model simulations is essential to get robust climate change signals. If impact models are forced stand-alone with climate data, they should run an ensemble using multiple regional climate model ensemble members. The number of ensemble members depends on the variable of interest.
