Abstract

Uses two case studies which involve models to simulate system dynamics at differing spatial scales: 1) permafrost in the circumpolar boreal zone, based on long-term research near Fairbanks, Alaska, the models being tested at continental and global scales; and 2) ecosystem pattern in forests versus grasslands, in which a set of models developed at different sites (CENTURY, MAGIC, FORET, STEPPE) is applied to the Konza Prairie located in the forest-prairie transition zone in Kansas. -P.J.Jarvis
