Assimilation of global satellite leaf area estimates reduces modeled global...
Carbon, water and energy exchange between the land and atmosphere controls how ecosystems either accelerate or ameliorate the effect of climate change. However, evaluating...- publication PDF

A process-based evaluation of the Intermediate Complexity Atmospheric...
The evaluation of models in general is a nontrivial task and can, due to epistemological and practical reasons, never be considered complete. Due to this incompleteness, a model...- publication PDF
