6.10.1. JULES_VEGETATION namelist members

JULES_VEGETATION::l_trait_phys
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch for using trait-based physiology.

TRUE
Vcmax is calculated based on observed leaf traits. Leaf nitrogen (nmass: kgN kgLeaf-1) and leaf mass (LMA: kgLeaf m-2) can be based on observations from the TRY database. Vcmax (umol CO2 m-2 s-1) is based on linear regressions as in Kattge et al. 2009. Two additional parameters are needed: vint and vsl - the intercept and slope, respectively, that relate the leaf nitrogen to vcmax. Sigl is replaced with LMA (sigl=LMA*Cmass, where Cmass is the kgC kgLeaf-1 and is 0.4).
FALSE
Vcmax is calculated based on parameters nl0 (kgN kgC-1) and neff.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_phenol
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch for vegetation phenology model.

TRUE
Use phenology model.
FALSE
Do not use phenology model.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_triffid
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch for dynamic vegetation model (TRIFFID) except for competition.

TRUE
Use TRIFFID. In this case soil carbon is modelled using four pools (biomass, humus, decomposable plant material, resistant plant material).
FALSE
Do not use TRIFFID. A single soil carbon pool is used.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_veg_compete
Type:logical
Default:T

Switch for competing vegetation.

Only used if l_triffid = TRUE.

TRUE
TRIFFID will let the different PFTs compete against each other and modify the vegetation fractions.
FALSE
Vegetation fractions do not change.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_ht_compete
Type:logical
Default:F

Only used if l_triffid = TRUE.

TRUE

Use height-based vegetation competition (recommended).

This allows for a generic number of PFTs. When l_trif_eq = TRUE, this is implemented by lotka_eq_jls.F90. When l_trif_eq = FALSE, it is implemented in lotka_noeq_jls.F90 when l_trif_crop = FALSE and in lotka_noeq_subset_jls.F90 when l_trif_crop = TRUE.

FALSE

Use the vegetation competition described in HCTN24.

This is hard-wired for 5 PFTs (BT, NT, C3, C4, SH, in that order) with co-competition for grasses and trees in lokta_jls.F90.

JULES_VEGETATION::l_nitrogen
Type:logical
Default:F

Only used if l_triffid = TRUE.

TRUE
Enable Nitrogen limitation of carbon uptake. A nitrogen deposition field should be provided otherwise no N deposition is assumed.
FALSE
No Nitrogen limitation. Nitrogen fluxes are calculated as diagnostics only.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_trif_eq
Type:logical
Default:T

Switch for equilibrium vegetation model (i.e., an equilibrium solution of TRIFFID).

Only used if l_triffid = TRUE.

TRUE
Use equilibrium TRIFFID.
FALSE
Do not use equilibrium TRIFFID.
JULES_VEGETATION::phenol_period
Type:integer
Permitted:>= 1
Default:None

Period for calls to phenology model in days. Only relevant if l_phenol = TRUE.

JULES_VEGETATION::triffid_period
Type:integer
Permitted:>= 1
Default:None

Period for calls to TRIFFID model in days. Only relevant if one of l_triffid or l_trif_eq is TRUE.

JULES_VEGETATION::l_gleaf_fix
Type:logical
Default:T

Switch for fixing a bug in the accumulation of g_leaf_phen_acc.

This bug occurs because veg2 is called on TRIFFID timesteps and veg1 is called on phenol timesteps, but veg1 did not previously accumulate g_leaf_phen_acc in the same way as veg2.

TRUE
veg1 accumulates g_leaf_phen_acc between calls to TRIFFID. This is important if triffid_period > phenol_period.
FALSE
veg1 does not accumulate g_leaf_phen_acc between calls to TRIFFID.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_bvoc_emis
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch to enable calculation of BVOC emissions.

TRUE
BVOC emissions diagnostics will be calculated.
FALSE
BVOC emissions diagnostics will not be calculated.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_o3_damage
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch for ozone damage.

TRUE

Ozone damage is on.

Note

Ozone concentration in ppb must be prescribed in prescribed_data.nml.

FALSE
No effect.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_stem_resp_fix
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch for bug fix for stem respiration to use balanced LAI to derive respiring stem mass. The switch is included for backwards compatibility with existing configurations. Future updates should include this change.

TRUE
Respiring stem mass is derived allometrically.
FALSE

Respiring stem mass varies with seasonal LAI.

In the case of a Broadleaf tree in the winter (no leaves) this would mean stem respiration is scaled to 0.

JULES_VEGETATION::l_scale_resp_pm
Type:logical
Default:F

Scale whole plant maintenance respiration by the soil moisture stress factor, instead of only scaling leaf respiration.

TRUE
Soil moisture stress reduces leaf, root, and stem maintenance respiration.
FALSE
Soil moisture stress only reduces leaf maintenance respiration.
JULES_VEGETATION::fsmc_shape
Type:integer
Permitted:0,1
Default:0

Shape of soil moisture stress function on vegetation (fsmc).

  1. Piece-wise linear in vol. soil moisture.
  2. Piece-wise linear in soil potential. Currently only allowed when const_z = T and l_use_pft_psi = T.

Note

The option fsmc_shape = 1 is still in development. Users should ensure that results are as expected, and provide feedback where deficiencies are identified.

JULES_VEGETATION::l_use_pft_psi
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch for parameters in the soil moisture stress on vegetation function (fsmc).

TRUE
Fsmc is calculated from psi_close_io and psi_open_io.
FALSE
Fsmc is calculated from sm_wilt and sm_crit in JULES_SOIL_PROPS and fsmc_p0_io.

Note

Soil respiration and surface conductance of bare soil respectively will depend on sm_wilt and sm_crit in JULES_SOIL_PROPS, regardless of the setting of fsmc_shape.

Note

The option l_use_pft_psi = T is still in development. Users should ensure that results are as expected, and provide feedback where deficiencies are identified.

JULES_VEGETATION::l_vegcan_soilfx
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch for enhancement to canopy model to allow for conduction in the soil below the vegetative canopy, reducing coupling between the soil and the canopy.

TRUE
Allow for conduction in the soil.
FALSE
No effect.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_leaf_n_resp_fix

TRUE
Use correct forms for canopy-average leaf N content.
FALSE
No effect.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_landuse
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch for using landuse change in conjunction with TRIFFID

Only used if l_triffid = TRUE.

TRUE
Land use change is implemented within TRIFFID. Litter fluxes are split between soil and wood product pools. Requires additional prognostics covering the product pools and the agricultural fraction from the previous TRIFFID call.
FALSE
All litter fluxes enter the soil
JULES_VEGETATION::l_recon
Type:logical
Default:T

Switch for reconfiguring vegetation fractions. Also initialises vegetation and soil biogeochemistry at land ice points. With the ECOSSE soil model this switch also ensures that the initial condition for soil biogeochemistry is internally consistent.

TRUE
For soil points (land points with no ice) ensure vegetation fractions are at least a minimum value and reduce other fractions accordingly.
FALSE
Do not apply the minimum vegetation fractions. This is useful when some points are 100% lake and urban, in which case reconfiguration leads to a total tile fraction of greater than 1.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_prescsow
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch that determines how crop sowing dates are defined. Only used if ncpft > 0.

TRUE
Sowing dates prescribed in JULES_CROP_PROPS are used.
FALSE
Sowing dates are determined by the model.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_irrig_dmd
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch controlling the implementation of irrigation demand code.

TRUE
Tiles are irrigated.
FALSE
No effect.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_irrig_limit
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch controlling whether the amount of water used to irrigate tiles is limited.

TRUE

Water for irrigation is taken first from the deep soil (groundwater) store, and then from the river storage when the deep soil store is exhausted. Tiles are irrigated up to the critical point if the necessary water is available. This option requires l_irrig_dmd = TRUE, l_top = TRUE, l_rivers = TRUE and i_river_vn = 1,3.

Warning

The irrigation supply code in JULES is still in development, and is available in this release to support beta testing activities.

Users should ensure that results are as expected, and provide feedback where deficiencies are identified.

FALSE
Tiles will be irrigated to critical point from an unconstrained water supply.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_trif_crop
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch controlling the treatment of agricultural PFTs. Where agricultural PFTs are defined by the crop_io parameter.

TRUE
In the non-agricultural area natural PFT competition is calculated by a call to a new version of the lotka routine and in each agricultural area agricultural-PFT competition is calculated by an additional call to the new version of the lotka routine. Crop and pasture areas are defined by the frac_agr and frac_past variables respectively. Additionally, to represent harvesting, a fraction of crop litter is added to the fast wood products pool instead of the soil carbon pools.
FALSE
Vegetation competition is calculated for natural and crop PFTs together, with natural PFTs excluded from the agricultural area that is defined by the frac_agr variable. Agricultural PFTs can also grow in natural areas where they are interpreted as natural grasses.
JULES_VEGETATION::irr_crop
Type:integer
Permitted:0, 1 or 2
Default:0
  1. Irrigation season (i.e. season in which crops might be growing on the gridbox) lasts the entire year.
  2. Irrigation season is determined from driving data according to Döll & Siebert (2002) method. No irrigation is applied outside the irrigation season.
  3. Irrigation season is determined by maximum dvi across all tiles. Requires ncpft > 0. No irrigation is applied outside the irrigation season.
JULES_VEGETATION::can_model
Type:integer
Permitted:1-4
Default:4

Choice of canopy model for vegetation:

  1. No distinct canopy (i.e. surface is represented as a single entity for radiative processes).
  2. Radiative canopy with no heat capacity.
  3. Radiative canopy with heat capacity. This option is deprecated, with 4 preferred.
  4. As 3 but with a representation of snow beneath the canopy. This option is preferred to 3.

Note

can_model = 1 does not mean that there is no
vegetation canopy. It means that the surface is represented as a single entity, rather than having distinct surface and canopy levels for the purposes of radiative processes.
JULES_VEGETATION::can_rad_mod
Type:integer
Permitted:1, 4, 5, 6
Default:4

Options for treatment of canopy radiation.

  1. A single canopy layer for which radiation absorption is calculated using Beer’s law. Leaf-level photosynthesis is scaled to the canopy level using the ‘big leaf’ approach. Leaf nitrogen, photosynthetic capacity, i.e the Vcmax parameter, and leaf photosynthesis vary exponentially through the canopy with radiation.
  1. Multi-layer approach for radiation interception following the two-stream approach of Sellers et al. (1992). This approach takes into account leaf angle distribution, zenith angle, and differentiates absorption of direct and diffuse radiation. It has an exponential decline of leaf N through the canopy and includes inhibition of leaf respiration in the light. Canopy photosynthesis and conductance are calculated as the sum over all layers.
  2. This is an improvement of option 4, including:
    • Sunfleck penetration though the canopy.
    • Division of sunlit and shaded leaves within each canopy level.
    • A modified version of inhibition of leaf respiration in the light.
  3. This is an improvement of option 5, including an exponential decline of leaf N with canopy height proportional to LAI, following Beer’s law.

Note

can_rad_mod = 1 and 6 are recommended.

Note

When using can_rad_mod = 4, 5 or 6 it is recommended to use driving data that contains direct and diffuse radiation separately rather than a constant diffuse fraction.

See also

Descriptions of option 1 can be found in Jogireddy et al. (2006), and an application of option 4 can be found in Mercado et al. (2007). Options 1 to 5 are described in Clark et al (2011).

JULES_VEGETATION::ilayers
Type:integer
Permitted:>= 0
Default:10

Number of layers for canopy radiation model. Only used for can_rad_mod = 4, 5 or 6.

These layers are used for the calculations of radiation interception and photosynthesis.

JULES_VEGETATION::photo_model
Type:integer
Permitted:1 or 2
Default:none

Choice for model of leaf photosynthesis.

Possible values are:

  1. C3 and C4 plants use the models of Collatz et al., 1991 and 1992, respectively. These were used in the original JULES model.
  2. C3 plants use the model of Farquhar et al. (1980); C4 plants use the model of Collatz et al. (1992).

Warning

The Farquhar model can only be used if can_rad_mod = 1, 5 or 6. Code has not been written for other values of can_rad_mod.

Only use if any l_vegdrag_pft = TRUE.

JULES_VEGETATION::c3_usuh
Type:real
Permitted:>= 0
Default:None

This is used in the exponent of equation weighting dense and sparse vegetation to get u*/U(h) in neutral condition. See Massman (1997). The default value is taken from Wang (2012).

Vegetation roughness lengths are calculated using canopy heights and parameter dz0v_dh_io.
JULES_VEGETATION::l_limit_canhc
Type:logical
Default:F

Switch for limiting the canopy heat capacity for vegetation, which is calculated from the canopy height.

Using the SIMARD canopy height ancillary gives very large heat capacities in the Amazon, so this switch limits the areal heat capacity to 1.15e5 J kg-1 m-2, which is the value calculated by the default broadleaf tree height of 19.01 m.

TRUE
Vegetation areal heat capacity limited.
FALSE
Vegetation areal heat capacity unlimited.

  2. J25 and V25 are calculated assuming that the total amount of nitrogen allocated to photosynthesis remains constant, thus any change in J25 requires a compensatory change in V25 - as used in Mercado et al. (2018).

Warning

A value of 1 (simple scaling) must be used if photo_acclim_model = 0 (no adaptation or acclimation).

Only used with photo_jv_model = 2.

JULES_VEGETATION::jv25_zero
Type:real
Default:None

Value of the ratio J25/V25 for a growth temperature of 0 deg C (mol electrons [mol-1 CO2]).

Only used with thermal acclimation of photosynthesis (photo_acclim_model = 2).

JULES_VEGETATION::n_day_photo_acclim
Type:real
Default:None

Time constant (days) for the exponential moving average of temperature that is used as the growth temperature. Given a step function as input, the smoothed output has fallen to 1/e (approx. 37%) of the initial value after this number of days.
