Biosphere-atmosphere exchange fluxes for CO2 from the Vegetation Photosynthesis and Respiration Model VPRM for 2006-2022

Biosphere-atmosphere exchange fluxes for CO2 simulated with the Vegetation Photosynthesis and Respiration Model VPRM for the European domain. 

Simulations were performed using the following datasets:

  • Vegetation Photosynthesis and Respiration Model VPRM (Mahadevan et al., 2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2006GB002735)
  • VPRM parameters optimized for the year 2007 using 46 sites within Europe (available from www.europe-fluxdata.eu)
  • VPRM preprocessor code version Rev. 116
  • VPRM optimization code version Rev. 7
  • VPRM offline code version Rev. 13
  • MODIS Terra MOD09A1 surface reflectances version 6
  • Downward shortwave radiation and 2m Temperature extracted from analysis and short-term forecast fields from the ECMWF IFS model
  • Landcover classification based on SYNMAP (Jung et al., 2006, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2006.01.020)
