Understanding Human Land Use in the Climate System: Investigations with an Earth System Model (NCAR CESM)
The land is a critical interface through which:
1. Climate and climate change impactshumans and ecosystems
and
2. Humans and ecosystems can force global environmental and climate change

Understanding Human Land Use in the Climate System: Investigations with an Earth System Model (NCAR CESM)
Land Management in CESM:
- How are we transforming Natural Ecosystems through Deforestation, Pasture, Wood Harvesting, or Afforestation?
- How will Natural and Disturbed Ecosystems respond to changes in climate and CO2?
- How will Humanity Feed itself as thepopulation grows, society becomes more affluent, and agriculture is impacted by climate and changing CO2?

1. Surface Energy Fluxes:- Solar Energy Fluxes (Albedo – Vegetation, Snow, Soils)- Long Wave Energy Fluxes (Surface Temp & Emissivity)- Latent Heat Fluxes (Transpiration, Evaporation)- Sensible Heat Fluxes (Surface Temp & Roughness)
2. Surface Hydrology:- Rain and Snow (Vegetation, Snow Pack, Runoff)- Transpiration, Evaporation, Snow melt, Sublimation- Soil Moisture and Aquifer recharge and drainage- Climate Feedback through Precipitation Changes
3. Biogeochemistry (Carbon and Nitrogen Cycles):- Plant Photosynthesis and Respiration

Slide 4 – Land Cover Change
CLM5 Climate and Carbon Cycle impacts of Land Cover Change1. We can assess the Climate and Carbon Cycle responses of Land Use Land
Cover Changes (LULCC) in CLM5 for a given period under changing climate and CO2.
2. To do this we run CLM5 simulations with changing or transient LULCC compared to the same simulations performed without the LULCC.
3. The CLM5 LULCC impacts are assessed through looking at differences between the simulations.
4. Differences in climate are assessed over the last 20 years of both simulations to provide robust statistics against back ground variability. Differences in the carbon cycle are looked at over the length of the simulations.
5. All experiments use 1850 – 2010 GSWP3 Prescribed Meteorology which has been shown to provide the best forcing and transient model response
6. There are no larger scale climate feedbacks in these studies as Meteorology is prescribed.

CLM5 LULCC results in large crop harvest flux out ofthe land of 159 PgC
Much of the crop harvestflux is offset in the LULCC simulation by higher NPPfrom fertilizer and lower heterotrophic respiration (organic matter decay) from harvest and residue management.
