"The land component includes precipitation and evaporation, streams, lakes, rivers, and runoff "
"The land model in both ESMs (LM3.0) represents land water, energy, and carbon cycles. LM3.0 includes a multilayer snowpack above the soil; continuous vertical representation of soil water, spanning both unsaturated and saturated zones; frozen soil water; parameterization of water table height, saturated-area fraction, and groundwater discharge to streams derived from groundwater hydraulics and surface topography; finite-velocity horizontal transport of river runoff; lakes, lake ice, and lake-ice snowpacks that exchange mass and energy with both the atmosphere and rivers; and consistent, energy-conserving accounting of sensible heat content of water.
