Title Uncertainties in climate change prediction and modelling Type Report
Year 2013 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal
Volume 1 Issue Pages D-L1.5
Keywords
Abstract As models become increasingly complex and integrated, uncertainty among model  parameters, variables and processes become critical for evaluating model outcomes and  predictions. A framework for understanding uncertainty in climate modelling has been  developed by the IPCC and EEA which provides a framework for discussion of uncertainty  in models in general. Here we report on a review of this framework along with the results  of a survey of sources of uncertainty in livestock and grassland models. Along with the  identification of key sources of uncertainty in livestock and grassland modelling, the  survey highlighted the need for a development of a common typology for uncertainty.  When collaborating across traditionally separate research fields, or when communicating  with stakeholders, differences in understanding, interpretation or emphasis can cause  confusion. Further work in MACSUR should focus on improving model intercomparison  methods to better understand model uncertainties, and improve availability of high  quality datasets which can reduce model uncertainties.

Title Identified grassland-livestock production systems and related models Type Report
Year 2013 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal
Volume 2 Issue Pages D-L2.1.1
Keywords
Abstract This report describes grassland-livestock production systems, as selected for model-basedstudies. A list of grassland models was identified for evaluation against such datasets(WP2) and application at reference farm (WP3) and regions (WP4) across Europe and peri-European countries. No Label

Title Protocol for model evaluation Type Report
Year 2014 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal
Volume 3 Issue Pages D-L2.2/D
Keywords
Abstract This deliverable focuses on the development of methods for model evaluation in order to have unambiguous indications derived from the use of several evaluation metrics. The information about model quality is aggregated into a single indicator using a fuzzy expert system that can be applied to a wide range of model estimates where suitable test data are available. This is a cross-cutting activity between CropM (C1.4) and LiveM (L2.2). No Label

Title Results of uncalibrated grassland model runs Type Report
Year 2014 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal
Volume 3 Issue Pages D-L2.3
Keywords
Abstract This deliverable focuses on the some illustrative results obtained with the grassland models selected (D-L2.1.1) to simulate biomass and flux data from grassland sites in Europe and peri-Mediterranean regions (D-L2.1.1 and D-L2.1.2). This is a blind exercise, carried out without model calibration. The complete set of results will include simulations from calibrated models. The results shown are illustrative of the methodology adopted for grassland model intercomparison in MACSUR. The insights gained from this ongoing study are relevant for some crop and vegetation models, which in some cases proved comparable to grassland-specific models to simulate biomass data from managed grasslands.   The results reported here cannot be considered conclusive.   Additional results will be published as they become available together with calibration results, as well as the comprehensive evaluation of models with fuzzy logic-based indicators.
