Perspectives on the Future of Land Surface Models and the Challenges of Representing Complex Terrestrial Systems

Abstract Land surface models (LSMs) are a vital tool for understanding, projecting, and predicting the dynamics of the land surface and its role within the Earth system, under global change. Driven by the need to address a set of key questions, LSMs have grown in complexity from simplified represent...
