Contribution of land-atmosphere coupling to recent European summer heat waves

[1] Most of the recent European summer heat waves have been preceded by a pronounced spring precipitation deficit. The lack of precipitation and the associated depletion of soil moisture result in reduced latent cooling and thereby amplify the summer temperature extremes. In order to quantify the contribution of land-atmosphere interactions, we conduct regional climate simulations with and with...

Impact of Atmospheric Variability on Soil Moisture-Precipitation Coupling

It is now well-established that the chaotic nature of the atmosphere severely limits the predictability of weather, while the slowly varying sea surface temperature (SST) and land surface states can enhance the predictability of atmospheric variations through surfaceatmosphere interactions or by providing a boundary condition (e.g., Shukla 1993, 1998; Shukla et al. 2000; Graham et al. 1994; Kos...

Root Zone Soil Moisture Retrieval Using Streamflow and Surface Moisture Data Assimilation in Nested Catchments

Correct knowledge of soil moisture is important for improving the prediction of coupled land surface atmosphere interactions. This is due to the control that soil moisture exerts on the latent and sensible heat flux transfer between the land surface and atmosphere. Because of this strong dependence on moisture availability, improved atmospheric prediction requires correct initialisation of soil...

A land data assimilation system for simultaneous simulation of soil moisture and vegetation dynamics

Despite the importance of the coupling between vegetation dynamics and root-zone soil moisture in land-atmosphere interactions, there is no land data assimilation system (LDAS) that currently addresses this issue, limiting the capacity to positively impact weather and seasonal forecasting. We develop a new LDAS that can improve the skill of an ecohydrological model to simulate simultaneously su...

A downscaling method for distributing surface soil moisture within a microwave pixel: application to the Monsoon ’90 data

A downscaling method of the microwave surface soil moisture is applied to the PBMR data collected during the Monsoon ’90 experiment. The downscaling method requires (1) the coarse resolution microwave observation (2) the distribution at fine scale of soil temperature and (3) the distribution at fine scale of the surface conditions composed of atmospheric forcing and the parameters involved in t...
