Improving the dynamics of Northern Hemisphere high-latitude vegetation in the ORCHIDEE ecosystem model

Processes that describe the distribution of vegetation and ecosystem succession after disturbance are an important component of dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs). The vegetation dynamics module (ORC-VD) within the process-based ecosystem model ORCHIDEE (Organizing Carbon and Hydrology in Dyna...
