Dear Sir/Madam,
I find that there are 17 PFT types in the dataset mksrf_pft.nc. PFT type 17 stands for bare ground, so there is no corresponding LAI, SAI and vegetation HTOP or HBOT data for PFT type 17 in the mksrf_lai.nc dataset.
However, I found that PFT type-1 i.e. NET temperate (z=1) doesn't have corresponding LAI or SAI data in mksrf_lai.nc, whereas LAI, SAI data exists for other PFT types (z=2 to z=16). Can anybody please help me to understand the reason for this mismatch?
I also wonder how does the CLM read the LAI, SAI dataset corresponding to each PFT type if there is a mismatch of this sort !
Thanks in advance to all,
with best regards,
Subhadeep.
