1 FutMon Water Budget Model Comparison Workshop Simulating the water budget of forest sites using the model BIOME-BGC Dipl.-Geogr. Heike Lotsch & Dr. Hubert Jochheim ZALF MünchebergM Institute of Landscape Systems Analysis

2 The Model BIOME-BGC Original version of simulation model BIOME-BGC 4.2 (Thornton et al. 2002*) Biome = area characterized by its flora, fauna, and climate BGC = Bio-Geochemical Cycles for simulation of water, carbon and nitrogen budget of terrestrial biomes process model daily time-steps scale: biome-focused, regional global application most important input: weather *

3 BIOME-BGC (ZALF Version) Extensions ZALF Version** scale: forest ecosystems changes in phenology (multiple species representable) changes in canopy evaporation and transpiration forest management module ** root growth module multilayered application of C, temperature & soil water

4 The Model BIOME-BGC (ZALF Version) Data flux diagram for regional application of BIOME-BGC-ZALF input data literature values experimental data forest yield tables silvicultural scenarios Mauna loa / SRES forest inventory data base (DSW) forest survey map meteorology climate scenarios REMO grid atmospheric chemistry N-Depo.

5 Calculating the water budget Original version BIOME-BGC 1-layer determined by soil & root depth precipitation transpiration pv soil evaporation infiltration canopy & stem evaporation LAI Plant specific modul air surface runoff stand prec. snow/sublimation fk available water pwp residual water capillary rise dynamic groundwater L 1 L 2 L 3 L n percolation L 1 L 2 L 3 L n water removal out of layers Vertical root growth outflow acc. to Puhlmann 2006

6 Calculating the water budget Precipitation (P) canopy, stem, stand P pools canopy cover fraction LAI & stem C determined Evaporation (E) and transpiration (T) Potential E and T Penman-Monteith separate for soil & canopy/stem Actual E and T (Koitzsch and Günther 1990**) layerwise water extraction acc. to density function: separate for E and T hydraulic potential of each layer is calculated E & T decreasing with depth canopy & stem water storage pool for next days E Snow sublimation according to radiation & latent heat Plant specific modul L 1 L 2 L 3 L n soil evap. precipitation evaporation & transpiration stand prec. water removal out of layers canopy & stem LAI snow/sublimation Vertical root growth acc. to Puhlmann 2006

7 Calculating the water budget Infiltration (I) and surface runoff (SR) pv fk sources of I: stand P & snowmelt calculation of SR (Holtan 1961**) air available water pwp residual water soil evaporation capillary rise dynamic groundwater L 1 L 2 L 3 L n outflow infiltration surface runoff percolation Percolation (Glugla 1969**) unsaturated zone - Percolation: if water exceeds fc last layer = outflow - percolation can be estimated from ks saturated zone - soil filled up to pore volume water above pore volume directed to seepage and outflow Capillary rise GW German soil classification, KA5** depends on texture, bulk density, distance to groundwater table & soil water content of the respective layer if layer above GW is filled with water, GW table is rising one layer Outflow Percolation out of deepest soil layer outflow

8 Data preparation, calibration & examples Used data for calibration literature/field experiments ** phenology specific data (epc) - e.g. Quercus cerris, Larix decidua & Pinus cembra stem C, cwd C (literature: growth measurements, yield tables), leaf C C/N ratios e.g. of leafs, allocations, LAI N-deposition Soil Calculation of fine soil proportion for water content simulation basic soil data texture (KA5), field capacity, bulk density, horizons, pv, fc, pwp, kf Presimulation 10 year run for met-file Parameterisation stand precipitation, canopy evaporation, soil temperature, soil moisture, LAI
