Land surface upgrades for HR4 #219

Closed HelinWei-NOAA closed 2 months ago

HelinWei-NOAA commented 3 months ago

To address some concerns from HR3 especially the surface cold biases we have finalized some land surface upgrades after carrying out extensive tests and evaluation.

  1. remove vegetation type-dependent for the diagnostic option (opt_diag) used in HR3
  2. use radiative temperature as skin temperature
  3. use single loop alternative approach to address some flux inconsistence below and above the canopy
  4. fix the thermal roughness bug (the one for bared portion in the composition is not the same as the one used in the bared title)
  5. adjust some momentum roughness length
  6. use the interpolated temp between the skin temp and the first soil temp to get the initial snow temp based on snow depth
  7. use constant snow thermal conductivity to reduce the snow insulation effects
  8. fix radiation parameter bugs for grassland/cropland
  9. adjust albedo parameter for each soil color category

@barlage @cenlinhe @dustinswales @grantfirl We'd appreciate it if you can review this PR. We'd like to get this PR committed to start GFS HR4 experiments at the earliest time possible.

@grantfirl @dustinswales any chance for final reviews?
