Effects of multilayer snow scheme on the simulation of snow: Offline Noah and coupled with NCEP CFSv2

Abstract The Noah version 2.7.1 is a moderately complex land surface model (LSM), with a single layer snowpack, combined with vegetation and underlying soil layer. Many previous studies have pointed out biases in the simulation of snow, which may hinder the skill of a forecasting system coupled with...
