Figure 1.  The difference in total carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus pools between simulations with and without variable soil thickness as a function of depth-to-bedrock. Positive values mean larger amounts with variable soil thickness.

Validation Test 2: Comparison of basin TWS to GRACE

...

Figure 2.  Time series in basin mean total water storage (TWS) anomalies for 13 years (2002-2014 for GRACE compared to the last 13 years in the simulations).  There are three different TWS retrievals based on spherical harmonics from GRACE measurements from the Center for Space Research (CSR) at The University of Texas at Austin, GeoForschungsZentrum (GFZ) Potsdam, and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL).
