Global simulation of tropospheric O3-NOx-hydrocarbon chemistry -- 1. Model formulation
, 1998
"... We describe a global three-dimensional model for tropospheric O 3-NO x-hydrocarbon chemistry with synoptic-scale resolution. A suite of 15 chemical tracers, including O 3, NO x, PAN, HNO 3, CO, H 2 O 2, and various hydrocarbons, is simulated in the model. For computational expediency, chemical pro ..."

meteorology. Improvements are made to existing schemes for computing biogenic emissions of isoprene and NO. Our best estimates of global emissions include among others 42 Tg N yr-1 for NO x (21 Tg N yr-1 from fossil fuel combustion, 12 Tg N yr-1 from biomass burning, 6 Tg N yr-1 from soils, and 3 Tg N yr-1
Characterization of Rape Field Microwave Emission and Implications to Surface Soil Moisture Retrievals
, 2012
"... Abstract: In the course of Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission calibration and validation activities, a ground based L-band radiometer ELBARA II was situated at the test site Puch in Southern Germany in the Upper Danube Catchment. The experiment is described and the different data sets a ..."

acquired are presented. The L-band microwave emission of the biosphere (L-MEB) model that is also used in the SMOS L2 soil moisture algorithm is used to simulate the microwave emission of a winter oilseed rape field in Puch that was also observed by the radiometer. As there is a lack of a rape
Evaluation of MM5 Simulations With HTSVS With and Without Inclusion of Soil-Frost Parameterization
"... Permafrost and seasonally frozen ground are important surface features in high-latitudes. Because of this, a soil-frost parameterization was added to the Penn State University/NCAR mesoscale meteorological model MM5 in combination with the well validated hydro-thermodynamic soil vegetation scheme HT ..."

HTSVS, which takes into account among other things soil freezing and thawing. Reanalysis of temperature, wind vector, specific humidity and observations of precipitation were used to evaluate the importance of the soil-frost parameterization on the forecast for an episode in summer. R.m.s. errors
Article Soil Moisture Estimations Based on Airborne CAROLS L-Band Microwave Data
, 2011
"... Abstract: The SMOS satellite mission, launched in 2009, allows global soil moisture estimations to be made using the L-band Microwave Emission of the Biosphere (L-MEB) model, which simulates the L-band microwave emissions produced by the soil–vegetation layer. This model was calibrated using various ..."

gas emissions from managed peat soils: is the IPCC reporting guidance realistic
- Mires Peat
"... SUMMARY Drainage of peatlands leads to the decomposition of peat, resulting in substantial losses of carbon and nitrogen to the atmosphere. The conservation and restoration of peatlands can provide a major contribution to the mitigation of climate change. Improvements to guidance and capacity for r ..."

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics Improvement and evaluation of simulated global biogenic soil NO
, 2011
"... Abstract. Biogenic NO emissions from soils (SNOx) play important direct and indirect roles in tropospheric chemistry. The most widely applied algorithm to calculate SNOx in global models was published 15 years ago by Yienger and Levy (1995), and was based on very few measurements. Since then, numero ..."
