Abstract

Source code for the Canadian Land Surface Scheme including Biogeochemical Cycles (CLASSIC). CLASSIC is a process-based ecosystem and land surface model designed for use at scales ranging from site-level to global. Environment and Climate Change Canada develops and maintains CLASSIC as an open-source community model. CLASSIC is the successor to its two component models: the Canadian Land Surface Scheme (CLASS) and the Canadian Terrestrial Ecosystem Model (CTEM). For more information about CLASSIC see its webpage
