Hello,
I am trying to compare soil C (SOILC_vr) and volumetric soil water results from FATES with the observational dataset.
I can see that results are given in terms of each layer, 20 layers in total.
Yet, among FATES variables, I believe there is no separate variable regarding 'depth'.
So does this mean I can assume FATES to have the same soil structure as CLM5.0 as below? If yes, should I take 'layer node depth' as the depth of the soil in FATES..?
