The terrestrial system modeling platform (TerrSysMP) was developed to simulate the interaction between lateral flow processes in river basins with the lower atmospheric boundary layer.
It features three model components: COSMO, CLM , ParFlow and an external coupler OASIS3 that drives the system. This platform allows explicit modeling of land-atmosphere interactions across scales ranging from meters to kilometers via mosaic and downscaling / upscaling approaches. New parameterizations for root water uptake, additional plant function types, downscaling algorithms, and CO2 exchange processes have also been implemented into TerrSysMP in collaboration with B and C science clusters, and are currently being tested.
The website (git.meteo.uni-bonn.de), provides access to the repository of TerrSysMP.
NEW USERS should register in the website and contact Z4 (email: pshrestha@uni-bonn.de) to get access to TerrSysMP.
The site also offers links to extensive wiki for installing the system in various machines. A new suite of pre-processing and post-processing tools has been developed for the TerrSysMP and is available from the website. As an outreach program, a training course was conducted for the PhD students during the IRTG lecture series, forming a basis for the development of technical manual and user guide for the system; and the design of a TerrSysMP course for researchers within and outside TR32.
