lai.lai_type | 0 |
lai.lai_min | 3.2 |
lai.lai_max | 5.9 |
Where: Table 1, SUEWS model parameter values at XJH, p. 1987
Publishes Grass maximum LAI 5.9 and minimum LAI 3.2 for the Xujiahui study run.
Where: Section 2d, SUEWS model setup, parameters and LAI equations, p. 1988
States that winter and spring photographs show green grass, so the minimum was increased from 1.6 to 3.2; also states that SUEWS v2017a is used, rejects the day-length senescence Eq. (5c), and explicitly adopts the thermal-only Eq. (5b).
Applies to: parameters.lai.lai_type
Where: suews_phys_dailystate.f95, v2017a LAIType branches
LAIType below 0.5 uses the thermal-only senescence branch; LAIType at or above 0.5 adds the 12-hour day-length condition. Therefore stored integer 0 represents Ao Eq. (5b), while 1 represents the Eq. (5c) branch the paper rejects.
Applies to: parameters.lai.lai_min
Where: Table 4, Grass LAI minimum, p. 1701
Publishes the earlier Grass minimum 1.6 that Ao et al. explicitly adjusted for Xujiahui.
Applies to: parameters.lai.lai_max
Where: Table 2, Grass LAI maximum, p. 223
Directly publishes LAImax,grass as 5.9 with a Breuer et al. (2003) source footnote.
Applies to: parameters.lai.lai_max
Where: Table 7, Herbs, forbs, grasses LAI distribution, p. 286
Publishes median LAI 5.9 for herbs, forbs and grasses, with maximum 16.2 and N 77. The later SUEWS table repurposes the median as its LAI maximum.
Applies to: parameters.lai.lai_type, parameters.lai.lai_min, parameters.lai.lai_max
Where: Pre-migration Leaf Area Index row 31240020
Preserves the migrated 1/3.2/5.9 tuple and Ao reference. It establishes lineage but not scientific support for selector 1, which contradicts Ao's adopted equation under v2017a semantics.
| Name | supported Ao et al. use the SUEWS Grass class for the Xujiahui application. |
|---|---|
| Target | supported Ao et al. publish the LAI bounds and phenology choice for the SUEWS grass land-cover class. |
| Values | supported Ao et al. publish the stored 3.2/5.9 bounds and explicitly adopt thermal-only senescence Eq. (5b). SUEWS v2017a maps that branch to LAIType 0; the migrated value 1 instead selects the rejected day-length branch and is corrected to 0. The evidence also records the distinct upstream lineages of both bounds. |
| Source | supported Ao et al. directly publish the complete Xujiahui model-input assertion represented by this record. Järvi and Breuer preserve the older bound lineage, while the v2017a source code supplies the numeric selector semantics. |
| Place | supported The tuple is published as an input to the Xujiahui study-site run in Shanghai; older input lineage does not change the application identity of the published tuple. |
| Representativeness | supported Ao et al. apply the tuple to the Xujiahui source area and do not establish city-wide reach. |
| Urban Setting | supported Ao et al. describe Xujiahui as a dense central business district. |
| Method | supported The database adopts the complete tuple published by Ao et al.; its sidecar separately records that the minimum was locally adjusted and the maximum inherited from earlier literature. |
| Identity | supported The stable path and legacy ID preserve the Shanghai grass-LAI record while correcting the selector value that contradicted the named publication and model version. |
Ao et al. (2018) publish the complete Xujiahui grass LAI tuple: they locally adjust the minimum from 1.6 to 3.2 using site photographs, retain the inherited 5.9 maximum, and explicitly adopt thermal-only senescence Eq. (5b). SUEWS v2017a maps that equation to LAIType 0 and maps the migrated selector 1 to the day-length branch that Ao rejects. Changing the selector to 0 restores the published configuration. Järvi and Breuer document the distinct upstream lineages of the bounds without replacing Ao as the publication of the complete Shanghai application tuple.
