An improved lake model for climate simulations: Model structure, evaluation, and sensitivity analyses in CESM1
Lakes can influence regional climate, yet most general circulation models have, at best, simple and largely untested representations of lakes. We developed the Lake, Ice, Snow, and Sediment Simulator(LISSS) for inclusion in the land-surface component (CLM4) of an earth system model (CESM1). The exis...
