The main focus in JULES and SURFEX is on simulating vertical exchanges of water, heat and carbon at the land surface, and coupling these fluxes with operational weather prediction and climate models. Both models can be used also in offline applications in e.g. hydrology and vegetation monitoring. This report is structured around the terms in the generic catchment water balance equation (i.e. precipitation, evapotranspiration, stream outflow, ground-water flow and water storage) emphasizing the models’ capability to handle runoff production in a defined catchment and routing of that water to the catchment outlet. This is an important feature since usually hydrological models are calibrated and evaluated against discharge data measured at the (sub-)catchment outlet. JULES and SURFEX do not to differ fundamentally in the way and level of detail the hydrological processes are formulated in these models, although SURFEX seems to provide some more options for the user to select between different schemes of soil processes and discretizations. Both JULES and SURFEX models simulate snow and soil ice processes which are needed to properly simulate Nordic hydrological conditions. The water balance can be closed in both models, except for evaporation from lake surfaces which does not draw on any conserved water stores. In principle, it is possible to extract variables describing the hydrological cycle from e.g. the UM or HARMONIE weather prediction model runs, of which JULES and SURFEX are, respectively, parts of | Eier: | NVE | Eksemplar: | 2.
