Impact of Canopy Representations on Regional Modeling of Evapotranspiration using the WRF-ACASA Coupled Model
(MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change, 2015-12)In this study, we couple the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) with the Advanced Canopy-Atmosphere-Soil Algorithm (ACASA), a high complexity land surface model, to investigate the impact of canopy representation ... -
