ECOCLIMAP, A GLOBAL DATABASE OF LAND SURFACE PARAMETERS AT 1KM RESOLUTION J.L. CHAMPEAUX, V. MASSON, F. CHAUVIN METEO-FRANCE/CNRM, 42, Av Coriolis, 31057 Toulouse Cedex, France Tph : (0)5 61 07 93 55, Fax : (0)5 61 07 96 26, email : Jean-louis.champeaux@meteo.fr Mots-clé : Landcover,surface parameters, leaf area index, atmospheric models
SVAT SCHEME • Input parameters: • depending on soil • Percentage of sand and clay • Soil depth • depending on vegetation • Fraction of végétation (VEG) • Leaf area index (LAI) • - Minimal stomatal resistance • Rugosity (Z0) • dépending on soil and vegetation • Albedo • - Emissivity Atmospheric forcing
Climate maps Temporal profiles NDVI NOAA/AVHRR or SPOT/VGT Land cover maps 225 ecosystems Soil types Database of of surface parameters
Land cover map at 1km resolution (University of Maryland)
Different woodland types différent crop types
LAI=LAImin + (LAImax-LAImin) * (NDVI-NDVImin)/(NDVImax-NDVImin)
Comparison LAI ECOCLIMAP (in Y-axis) and LAI in situ (in X-axis)
Comparison LAI June Between ECOCLIMAP POLDER and ISCLSCP2
Daily Tmax Anomalies 10 years of simulation by comparison with the climatology CRU(1961-1990) for ECOCLIMAP and the old database Henderson-Sellers Old base New base New - old base
THE DATABASE IS AVAILABLE ON THE WEB: http://www.cnrm.meteo.fr/gmme/PROJETS/ECOCLIMAP/page_ecoclimap.htm Project: UPDATE ECOCLIMAP using GLC2000 landcover map and Corine 2000 for Europe • Contribution of the GLC 2000 land cover map at global scale: • - Consistent legend with LCCS classifiers • Good description of the different biomes • Real 1km resolution The knowledge of regional experts will be very useful to specify the surface parameters: fraction of vegetation, LAI ……..
CONCLUSIONS: • Global database of surface parameters at 1km resolution • (minimum) complete, robust and et coherent • Used in all the operational NWP and research models • of Meteo-France: • - ARPEGE CLIMAT • - ARPEGE NWP • - ALADIN • - MESO-NH
