Abstract
The paper investigates the sensitivity of evapotranspiration in the INM RAS–MSU land surface model to the changes in the weights of land surface classes in the cells of the latitude-longitude grid and the leaf area index LAI. It is demonstrated that the refinement of the values of the mentioned parameters based on modern observational data significantly reduces an error in evapotranspiration. The annual sum of evapotranspiration averaged over 10 years (2002–2012) from the surface of medium-sized (2−50×103 km2) watersheds of northern European Russia is used for the analysis. The model error has been calculated against the empirical estimates of evapotranspiration obtained from the watershed water balance equation. As an intermediate task, the accuracy of satellite data on terrestrial water storage used in the calculations is assessed by the comparison with the data of snow route surveys.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
