6.18. pft_params.nml

This file can contain 2 namelists called JULES_PFTPARM and JULES_PFTPARM_CABLE that set time and space-invariant parameters for plant functional types for the JULES and CABLE land surface models respectively.

Note

If the crop model is on (i.e. ncpft > 0), the order of PFTs must be natural PFTs followed by crop PFTs.

6.18.1. JULES_PFTPARM namelist members

This namelist reads the values of parameters for each of the plant functional types (PFTs) if the JULES land surface model is being used. These parameters are a function of PFT only. Parameters that also vary with time and location can be prescribed in prescribed_data.nml. Parameters that are only required if the dynamic vegetation (TRIFFID) or phenology sections are requested are read separately in triffid_params.nml. Every member must be given a value for every run.

The files given in the examples directory are a good starting point for setting up any JULES run, and in the majority of cases can be left untouched.

HCTN24 and 30 refer to Hadley Centre technical notes 24 and 30, available from the Met Office Library.

JULES_PFTPARM::canht_ft_io
Type:real(npft)
Default:None

The height of each PFT (m), also known as the canopy height.

The value read here is only used if TRIFFID is not active (l_triffid = FALSE).

Note

If TRIFFID is active, canopy height is a prognostic variable and its initial value is read in initial_conditions.nml.

JULES_PFTPARM::lai_io
Type:real(npft)
Default:None

The leaf area index (LAI) of each PFT.

The value read here is only used if neither phenology nor TRIFFID is active (l_phenol = FALSE and l_triffid = FALSE).

Note

If phenology is active, LAI is a prognostic variable and its initial value is read in initial_conditions.nml. When TRIFFID is active but phenology is not active (not recommended), LAI is calculated from the canopy height (meaning that the seasonal cycle of LAI will not be correctly represented).

JULES_PFTPARM::c3_io
Type:integer(npft)
Default:None

  1. Not C3 (i.e. C4).
  2. C3.
JULES_PFTPARM::orient_io
Type:integer(npft)
Default:None

Flag indicating leaf angle distribution.

  1. Spherical.
  2. Horizontal.
JULES_PFTPARM::can_struct_a_io
Type:real(npft)
Default:None

Canopy structure factor (dimensionless). can_struct_a_io=1.0 indicates a structurally homogeneous canopy. Corresponds to the structure factor Zeta in Pinty et al 2006 except assumed not to vary with zenith angle i.e. b=0. The canopy structure factor has no effect if can_rad_mod = 1.
