WRF default LAI datasets

[Heo]

Hello everyone,


I am currently running simulations with WRF v4.1.1 and planning to replace the LAI input dataset.
I would like to know which year(s) of data and which data source the default LAI dataset in WRF v4.1.1 / WPS v4.1.1 with geog v4 data is based on.


Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi,
Unfortunately this is the only information we have regarding the geographic datasets that were provided to us; however, I believe the MODIS LAI comes from the same source as the MODIS landuse, so perhaps this will be somewhat helpful.
