地表模式的适用范围越来越大。最初的设计是为了捕捉土地和大气之间的反馈，作为天气和气候预测的一部分，它们现在被用作迫切需要的关键工具，在一个物理和经济都在变化的世界中，为有关土地使用和水资源管理的政策提供信息。本文概述了模型通过这种目的变化而演变的方式，以及未来可能会发生的变化。它强调了在建模组件内区分科学进步的重要性，以及如何表示它们的相互作用的进步。建模的后一个方面经常被忽视，但随着系统的复杂性、被建模系统的时间和空间尺度的增加，它将日益成为一个问题。这些增加是由于技术、数据的可用性以及正在研究的问题的紧迫性和范围。
Land surface models have an increasing scope. Initially designed to capture the feedbacks between the land and the atmosphere as part of weather and climate prediction, they are now used as a critical tool in the urgent need to inform policy about land-use and water-use management in a world that is changing physically and economically. This paper outlines the way that models have evolved through this change of purpose and what might the future hold. It highlights the importance of distinguishing between advances in the science within the modelling components, with the advances of how to represent their interaction. This latter aspect of modelling is often overlooked but will increasingly manifest as an issue as the complexity of the system, the time and space scales of the system being modelled increase. These increases are due to technology, data availability and the urgency and range of the problems being studied.
