condition, whereas the freezing model substantially improved the simulation<br />

results <strong>und</strong>er frozen condition. Compared with two treatments (UG 79 and WG),<br />

the freezing model could express well grazing effects on soil water and heat<br />

fluxes <strong>und</strong>er unfrozen conditions. This confirmed the freezing model could<br />

predict the behavior of soil freezing and thawing, as well as the effects of land<br />

management. The weak prediction of soil moisture in WG might relate with weak<br />

parameterization of hydraulic properties, e.g. platy structure. In addition, the<br />

freezing model did not obviously produce surface runoff generated by snowmelt<br />

or soil thawing from frozen soil layer. We suggest that seasonal water balance,<br />

especially considering rainfall water stored as snow, snow drift and the lateral<br />

water flow on frozen soil layers need to be investigated further because of the<br />

complicated interactions at the soil-atmosphere interface and thus effects of<br />

bo<strong>und</strong>ary conditions on the simulation.<br />
