Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Review
May 20-22, 2014
Overarching questions
• How do changes in land ecosystem structure and
functioning effect global biogeochemical cycles
and climate?
• How do direct human activities and climate
influence land ecosystems?
1
-Tight coupling between water, carbon and nutrient cycles -Enormous biological diversity - Uncertainty about underlying ecological mechanisms

• Married LM3 ecosystem and hydrology branches
• Brought LM3 into all new GFDL GCMs and ESMs
• Developed coupled C-N land model, LM3-N
• Participated in CMIP5 ESM analyses and beyond
• Begin development of the new LM4 model – Comprehensive biogeochemistry in ESM: N, P, CH4, …
– Prognostic aerosols: dust, biomass burning, …
– Hydrological sub-grid heterogeneity & BGC
– New age-height vegetation succession model LM3-PPA

GFDL ESMs participated in CMIP5 terrestrial C studies
3
• Only 5 out 15 ESMs used
prognostic biogeography
• GFDL ESMs include
comprehensive land use model
• GFDL ESMs capture land C
source to sink transition, but
timing is delayed
• Cumulative historical land C
uptake in ESM2G within
observational constraints.
• Large uncertainty in future land
uptake • nutrient limitation • ecosystems processes • climate change

Climate benefit of the enhanced land C uptake
4
• Land use emissions contributed ~30 ppm to
the current atmospheric CO2 increase;
• Without enhanced vegetation growth in 2005:
- Atmospheric CO2 would have additional
85 ppm;
- Global surface temperature would be 0.31±0.06°C higher.
Shevliakova et al. 2013
Residual C sink = net Land C – Net Land Use C
190 GtC sink
70 GtC source

GFDL LM3-N stand alone model
5
• Fixed C:N vegetation pools
• Prognostic biological N fixation
• 4 competing sinks of mineral N
– plant uptake, immobilization, sorption to particles, denitrification
• Organic removal of N
– leaching, ecosystem losses through fire
• River N cycle
• Traditional N limitation on plant growth distorts seasonal cycles of H2O and CO2=> LM3-N is not suitable for coupling with ESMs

LM3 limitations
6
• Big soil C&N bucket with first
order decays
• Liebig’s Law nutrient limitation
• Fixed stoichiometry
• Fixed allocation
• No vertical canopy structure
• No explicit microbes
• Mortality via carbon starvation
• No hydrological sub-grid
heterogeneity
These limitations apply to
all CMIP5 land models.
Good news: we are addressing all these limitations in LM4!

Lessons learned
• Large uncertainty remains about historical and
future land C sources and sinks, particularly
implications of nutrient limitations
• Exciting new LM4 developments and
improvements for a number of land processes
• Collaborations with broad scientific community
are essential in ongoing GFDL land model
development and analysis
• Need to innovate not just tune existing CMIP5-
class land models to a limited set of observations
