The Rhône-Aggregation Land Surface Scheme Intercomparison Project: An Overview

The Rho ne-Aggregation (Rho ne-AGG) Land Surface Scheme (LSS) intercomparison project is an initiative within the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX)/Global Land-Atmosphere System Study (GLASS) panel of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP). It is a intermediate step leading up to the next phase of the Global Soil Wetness Project (GSWP) (Phase 2), for which there will be a broader investigation of the aggregation between global scales (GSWP-1) and the river scale. This project makes use of the Rho ne modeling system, which was developed in recent years by the French research community in order to study the continental water cycle on a regional scale.
