Modeling evidence for recent warming of the Arctic soil thermal regime
Christoph Oelke, Tingjun Zhang, and Mark [email protected]

Thermal Soil Model
• Finite difference, 1-D heat conduction with phase change (Goodrich, 1982)
• 3 major soil layers: 0 – 0.3 m, 0.3 – 0.8 m, 0.8 – 30 m
• 63 model nodes, resolution: 10 cm (near the surface) to 2 m (at 30 m depth)
• RIMS Arctic drainage area, 25 km x 25 km EASE Grid
• daily time step
• NCEP surface air temperature incl. topography correction• snow depth from SMMR andSSM/I SWE
