TL;DR: A multimodel estimation of the regions on Earth where precipitation is affected by soil moisture anomalies during Northern Hemisphere summer indicates potential benefits of this estimation may include improved seasonal rainfall forecasts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Continental-scale water and energy flux analysis and validation for the North American Land Data Assimilation System project phase 2 (NLDAS-2): 1. Intercomparison and application of model products

TL;DR: The second phase of the NLDAS-2 research partnership is presented in this article, where four land surface models (Noah, Variable Infiltration Capacity, Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting, and Mosaic) are executed over the conterminous U.S. (CONUS) in real-time and retrospective modes.

GLACE: The Global Land-Atmosphere Coupling Experiment. Part I: Overview
Randal D. Koster,Zhichang Guo,Paul A. Dirmeyer,Gordon B. Bonan,Edmond Chan,Peter M. Cox,Harvey Davies,C. T. Gordon,Shinjiro Kanae,Eva Kowalczyk,David M. Lawrence,Ping Liu,Cheng-Hsuan Lu,Sergey Malyshev,Bryant J. McAvaney,Kenneth E. Mitchell,David Mocko,Taikan Oki,Keith W. Oleson,Andrew J. Pitman,Yogesh C. Sud,Christopher M. Taylor,Diana Verseghy,R. Vasic,Yongkang Xue,Tomohito J. Yamada +25 more
TL;DR: The Global Land-Atmosphere Coupling Experiment (GLACE) as discussed by the authors is a model intercomparison study focusing on a typically neglected yet critical element of numerical weather and climate modeling: land-atmosphere coupling strength.

Glace: The Global Land-Atmosphere Coupling Experiment Part 2: Analysis
Zhichang Guo,Paul A. Dirmeyer,Randal D. Koster,Gordon B. Bonan,Edmond Chan,Peter M. Cox,C. T. Gordon,Shinjiro Kanae,Eva Kowalczyk,David M. Lawrence,Ping Liu,Cheng-Hsuan Lu,Sergey Malyshev,Bryant J.

Yamada +25 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the ability of soil moisture to affect precipitation and found that an evaporation rate that varies strongly and consistently with soil moisture tends to lead to a higher coupling strength.

Soil Moisture Memory in AGCM Simulations: Analysis of Global Land–Atmosphere Coupling Experiment (GLACE) Data
Sonia I. Seneviratne,Sonia I. Seneviratne,Randal D. Koster,Zhichang Guo,Paul A. Dirmeyer,Eva Kowalczyk,David M. Lawrence,Ping Liu,David Mocko,Cheng-Hsuan Lu,Keith W. Oleson,Diana Verseghy +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first survey examining and contrasting global-scale (near) monthly soil moisture memory characteristics across a broad range of AGCMs is presented, and the investigated simulations, performed with eight different AGCM models, were generated as part of the Global Land-Atmosphere Coupling Experiment.
