T-REX: the tile-based representation of lateral exchange processes in ICON-Land

The vast majority of land-surface models uses a tiling-approach to capture the effects of subgrid-scale spatial heterogeneity in the land-surface properties. In most cases, however, the tiles, which represent patches with homogeneous characteristics at and below the surface, are...

Natural wetland methane emissions simulated by ICON-XPP

Natural wetlands emit roughly one third of the global methane emissions, yet their contribution remains highly uncertain. To reduce this uncertainty, we incorporated a fully coupled wetland-hydrology and wetland-methane module into the ICON-XPP Earth-system model and performed a...
