A Process-Explicit Critical Zone Model With Vertically–Laterally Coupled Hydrology, Geomorphology, and Biogeochemistry

This repository supports the manuscript describing the Land Earth System Terrestrial Model (LESTM v1.0), which advances the representation of terrestrial critical zone processes in Earth system modeling. The study investigates how coupled hydrological, geomorphic, and biogeochemical dynamics regulate terrestrial water and elemental fluxes at global scale.The archive provides the processed model outputs, figure reproduction datasets, and plotting scripts required to replicate the results presented in the manuscript. Detailed documentation and information on external input data sources are provided in the accompanying README file.
