Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We integrated the bimodal-PDI scheme into the Community Land Model (CLM5) for Tibetan wetland sites. Benchmark simulations using in-situ soil moisture networks and eddy covariance towers showed that the PDI-based parameterization reduced surface soil water biases by 0.04 cm³•cm⁻³ and improved latent heat flux predictions by 15-22%. Model-data assimilation revealed that uncertainty in key parameters (α, n) decreased by 40% compared to unimodal van Genuchten schemes. Long-term simulations (2010-2020) indicated that runoff estimates for wetland catchments were improved by 12-18% (NSE increase from 0.68 to 0.80). This work provides a quantitative basis for incorporating hydric soil hydraulic complexity into land surface and regional climate models.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
