Features: This book focuses on the development and research of land surface process models, exploring the basic physical properties of various important underlying surfaces (bare soil, snow cover, permafrost, desert), as well as the internal water and heat transfer processes within these surfaces and the corresponding model development. It also covers the basic physical and biochemical characteristics of the vegetation biosphere, the radiative transfer processes occurring within it, the water and heat exchange processes between it and the atmosphere, and the corresponding physical model development.
