GEOtop is a fine-scale grid-based simulator that represents the heat and
water budgets at and below the soil surface. It describes the
three-dimensional water flow in the soil and the energy exchange with the
atmosphere, considering the radiative and turbulent fluxes. Furthermore, it
reproduces the highly non-linear interactions between the water and energy
balance during soil freezing and thawing, and simulates the temporal
evolution of the water and energy budgets in the snow cover and their effect
on soil temperature.
Here, we present the core components of GEOtop 2.0 and demonstrate its
functioning. Based on a synthetic simulation, we show that the interaction of
processes represented in GEOtop 2.0 can result in phenomena that are
significant and relevant for applications involving permafrost and
seasonally frozen soils, both in high altitude and latitude regions. |
