L↓

LAI
Leaf area index
LUMPS
Local-scale Urban Meteorological Parameterization Scheme (Loridan et al. 2011 [L2011]_)
MU
Parameters which must be supplied and must be specific for the site/grid being run.
MD
Parameters which must be supplied and must be specific for the site/grid being run (but default values may be ok if these values are not known specifically for the site).
O
Parameters that are optional, depending on the model settings in `RunControl.nml`. Set any parameters that are not used/not known to ‘-999’.
L
Codes that are used to link between the input files. These codes are required but their values are completely arbitrary, providing that they link the input files in the correct way. The user should choose these codes, bearing in mind that the codes they match up with in column 1 of the corresponding input file must be unique within that file. Codes must be integers. Note that the codes must match up with column 1 of the corresponding input file, even if those parameters are not used (in which case set all columns except column 1 to ‘-999’ in the corresponding input file), otherwise the model run will fail.
