Coupling of Integrated Biosphere Simulator to Regional Climate Model version 3
… Biosphere Simulator (IBIS) to Regional Climate Model version 3 (RegCM3), and an assessment of the coupled model (RegCM3-IBIS). RegCM3 is a 3-dimensional, primitive equation limited area model used throughout the world for seasonal predictability and regional climate studies. IBIS is a dynamic …

Spatial and temporal dynamics of the terrestrial carbon cycle : assimilation of two decades of optical satellite data into a process-based global vegetation model
… simulated by a combination of the process-based dynamic global vegetation model LPJ and a 21-year time series of global AVHRR-fPAR data (fPAR – fraction of photosynthetically active radiation). Assimilation of the satellite data into the model allows improved simulations of carbon fluxes on …

Modeling land surface processes of the midwestern United States : predicting soil moisture under a warmer climate
… United States. To assess this response, a dynamic global vegetation model, Integrated Biosphere Simulator, was coupled to Regional Climate Model version 3 (RegCM3- IBIS). IBIS has several key advantages over the native surface physics scheme used in RegCM3, Biosphere-Atmosphere Transfer …

Process-based simulation of the terrestrial biosphere : an evaluation of present-day and future terrestrial carbon balance estimates and their uncertainty
… for long-term climate mitigation strategies. A model describing the relevant processes that govern the terrestrial carbon cycle is a necessary tool to project regional carbon budgets into the future. This study (1) provides an extensive evaluation of the parameter-based uncertainty in model …
