PalEON: Terrestrial Ecosystem Model Outputs for the Northeastern U.S., 0850-2010

Published by ORNL_DAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: October 21, 2026 at 12:49 AM | Dataset Last Updated: October 20, 2026
This dataset from the PalEON (Paleo-Ecological Observatory Network) Ecosystem Model Intercomparison Project (PEMIP) provides site-specific and regional outputs from terrestrial ecosystem model simulations in the Northeastern U.S. over the time period 0850-01-01 to 2010-12-31. For the regional scale modeling effort, five ecosystem models participated: ED2, LINKAGES, LPJ-GUESS, LPJ-WSL, and TRIFFID. Additional output for a larger ensemble is available for six individual sites with the following models: CLM-BGC, CLM-CN, ED2, ED2-landuse, JULES, TRIFFID, LINKAGES, LPJ-GUESS, LPJ-WSL, and SiBCASA. Output variables include key terrestrial ecosystem metrics, such as aboveground biomass, autotrophic respiration, evaporation, gross primary productivity, net ecosystem exchange, and net primary productivity (output variables differ by model). The PEMIP is a coordinated effort to develop a set of terrestrial ecosystem model simulations with the ability to evaluate high-resolution ecophysiological causes and consequences of forest responses to climatic variability and change over the past millennium.
