Land Surface Improvements
Land surface processes play an important role in the climate system. In this chapter, some improvements to parameterizations of land surface processes are introduced, including representation of water table dynamics, inclusion of anthropogenic groundwater

Foreword
Change in the Earth’s climate involves complex interplay among physical, chemical, and biological processes of the atmosphere, ocean, sea ice, and land surface, and is also affected by various external forcing agents. Climate system models are the most powerful tools for enhancing our understanding of the fundamental mechanisms underpinning these interactions among
