Dynamic Land Ecosystem Model (DLEM)

Overview

The DLEM is a terrestrial ecosystem model that couples major biogeochemical cycles, hydrological cyle, and vegetation dynamics to estimate daily carbon, nitrogen and water fluxes and pool sizes.

Components of DLEM

Biophysics
Plant Physiology
Soil Biogeochemistry
Dynamic Vegetation
Land Use & Management

Versions of DLEM

DLEM 1.0
DLEM 2.0
DLEM 3.0

Soil Biogeochemistry

The soil biogeochemistry component simulates N mineralization, nitrification/denitrification, NH3 volatilization, leaching of soil mineral N, decomposition and fermentation.
