Short summary
Glaciers and ice sheets are critical components of the climate system. A set of improvements to snow and ice processes, targeting glacier and ice sheet regions, are introduced in a land surface model used to produce Weather Forecasts and climate reanalyses. The results demonstrate that more realistic snow and ice processes can lead to positive impacts on the simulation of various Earth System components, e.g. the surface temperature and the streamflow of rivers contributed by glacier melting.
