Abstract

We present an overview of new process models that are being added to the JULES land surface model for use in the QUEST Earth System Model (QESM). The new components address vegetation dynamics, plant nitrogen uptake, fire, soil carbon and nitrogen processes, and biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs).
