VIC Model StatusBlowing Snow and Lake Algorithms Princeton Meeting December 4, 2006 Blowing Snow Predictive model of the sublimation from blowing snow Distribution of terrain slopes Non-equilibrium Transport Simulated annual sublimation from blowing snowSensitivity to fetch Permafrost and frozen ground Soil node temperatures solved via heat diffusion equation (Cherkauer and Lettenmaier 1999) Constant flux or constant temperature options Imposed temperature distribution at each node allows spatial variation of infiltration capacity and active layer depth across the grid cell (Cherkauer et al. 2001) Imnavait Creek active layer depth Betty Pingo SWE and active layer depth On-going work at UW Confirmed functionality of constant flux solution Revise distribution of soil thermal nodes to improve stability Introduce ground ice parameterization Lakes and wetlands Predicting the effects of lakes and wetlands Lake energy balance Lake surface energy balance ObservedSimulated Wetland Algorithm Simulated saturated extentPutuligayuk River, Alaska History Original model - documented (briefly) in Cherkauer et al. (2003) Subsequent revisions (incorporated into VIC 4.1.0 r3 and documented in Bowling et al. manuscript): Lakes can disappear/reappear Lake profile description and thermal solution nodes separated Lake runoff rate more physically described Current Efforts Water Table Previously VIC did not calculate the water table depth Average depth to water table calculated for each vegetation type Summation of depth of saturated layers and depth of excess soil moisture for unsaturated layer VIC Simulations Observations show rain pulse penetrating to water table quickly Issue of moisture transfer to depth? or Lateral inflow from flooded ditch? Lateral Exchange Previously the lake could not recharge the local groundwater Equilibrium soil moisture is calculated to determine flow direction Baseflow can go either into or out of the lake in a given time step Baseflow out of l
