    4 Since r1551 a full land surface model (LSM) is available in PALM. It consists of a four layer soil model, predicting soil temperature and moisture content, and a solver for the energy balance at the surface. Moreover, a liquid water reservoir accounts for the presence of liquid water on plants due to dew/fog. The implementation is based on the ECMWF-IFS land surface parametrization (TESSEL) and its adaption in the DALES model. More more details, see [wiki:doc/tec/lsm land surface model documentation].
     4Since r1551 a full land surface model (LSM) is available in PALM. It consists of a multi layer soil model, predicting soil temperature and moisture content, and a solver for the energy balance at the surface.

    66All parts of the LSM code are modularized in module [/browser/palm/trunk/SOURCE/land_surface_model.f90 land_surface_model_mod]. In this context, a new Fortran NAMELIST {{{lsm_par}}} was added, containing all LSM-related steering parameters. The LSM is automatically activated when a {{{lsm_par}}} is set in the parameter file ({{{_p3d}}}). The user can easily set all relevant LSM parameters by choosing between 3 different surface types (vegetation, pavement, water) and various pre-defined surface classes 17 pre-defined [#vegetation_type vegetation types], 7 pre-defined [#pavement_type pavement type]s, 4 pre-defined [#water_type water types], and 6 different [#soil_type soil types]. The default setting of the LSM is a soil of medium porosity covered to 85% with short grass. It is also possible to modify the pre-defined vegetation/soil types by overwriting some of the parameters. Moreover it is possible to create user-defined vegetation and soil types from scratch.
