Modeling biogeochemical responses of tundra ecosystems to temporal and spatial variations in climate in the Kuparuk River Basin , Alaska, 1921 to 2100.

Output data set of the MBL-GEM III model run for tussock tundra in the Kuparuk River Basin, Alaska, described in detail in Le Dizès, S., B. L. Kwiatkowski, E. B. Rastetter, A. Hope, J. E. Hobbie, D. Stow, and S. Daeschner, Modeling biogeochemical responses of tundra ecosystems to temporal and spatial variations in climate in the Kuparuk River Basin (Alaska), J. Geophys. Res., 108(D2), 8165, doi:10.1029/2001JD000960, 2003. We ran the model at a 10 km x 10 km resolution for 123 cells at a yearly time step for 180 years, from 1921 to 2100. Two scenarios enabled the investigation of the effects of two opposing climate change scenarios for the 2001-2100 future period: warmer and wetter ("wet scenario" or Scenario 1) and warmer and drier ("dry scenario" or Scenario 2). These 246 files contain all simulation results for each scenario for individual cells in the Kuparuk River basin.本数据集为阿拉斯加库帕鲁克河流域（Kuparuk River Basin）苔原草丛的MBL-GEM III模型运行输出数据集，详细研究内容见于Le Dizès S.、B. L. Kwiatkowski、E. B. Rastetter、A. Hope、J. E. Hobbie、D. Stow及S. Daeschner于2003年发表于《地球物理学研究杂志》（Journal of Geophysical Research）第108卷第D2期、文章编号8165、DOI为10.1029/2001JD000960的论文《阿拉斯加库帕鲁克河流域苔原生态系统对气候时空变化的生物地球化学响应模拟》（Modeling biogeochemical responses of tundra ecosystems to temporal and spatial variations in climate in the Kuparuk River Basin (Alaska)）。本研究以10 km×10 km的空间分辨率、年时间步长对123个网格单元开展了时长180年的模拟，模拟时段为1921年至2100年。我们设置了两种对立的气候变化情景，用以探究2001-2100年未来时段的气候影响：暖湿情景("湿情景"或情景1)与暖干情景("干情景"或情景2)。本次模拟共生成246个文件，涵盖库帕鲁克河流域各单个网格单元在两种情景下的全部模拟结果。
