Abstract: Recent progress in satellite observations has provided unprecedented opportunities to monitor vegetation activity at global scale. However, a major challenge in fully utilizing remotely sensed data to constrain land surface models (LSMs) lies in inconsistencies between simulated and observed quantities. For example, gross primary productivity (GPP) and transpiration (T) that traditional LSMs simulate are not directly measurable from space, although they can be inferred from spaceborne observations using assumptions that are inconsistent with those LSMs. In comparison, canopy reflectance and fluorescence spectra that satellites can detect are not modeled by traditional LSMs. To bridge these quantities, we presented an overview of the next generation land model developed within the Climate Modeling Alliance (CliMA), and simulated global GPP, T, and hyperspectral canopy radiative transfer (RT; 400–2,500 nm for reflectance, 640–850 nm for fluorescence) at hourly time step and 1° spatial resolution using CliMA Land. CliMA Land predicts vegetation indices and outgoing radiances, including solar‐induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF), normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), enhanced vegetation index (EVI), and near infrared reflectance of vegetation (NIRv) for any given sun‐sensor geometry. The spatial patterns of modeled GPP, T, SIF, NDVI, EVI, and NIRv correlate significantly with existing data‐driven products (mean R2 = 0.777 for 9 products). CliMA Land would be also useful in high temporal resolution simulations, for example, providing insights into when GPP, SIF, and NIRv diverge. Plain Language Summary: Terrestrial plants exchange water for CO2, but there is not a direct way to measure the carbon gain and water loss at the global scale. Researchers often use eddy covariance flux tower measurements and satellite observations to infer vegetation gross primary productivity (GPP) and transpiration (T). However, flux towers with high temporal resolution are too sparsely distributed, and satellites with high spatial coverage can only detect vegetation properties indirectly, such as solar induced chlorophyll fluorescence, rather than GPP and T themselves. We bridge these two aspects in a new generation land surface model that simultaneously simulates GPP and T, as well as spectrally resolved canopy radiative transfer. We compare our model outputs directly to not only GPP and T estimations but also satellite retrievals of fluorescence and vegetation indices. We show that our new model can represent how GPP and T, as well as canopy radiative properties vary across the globe. Key Points: Overview of Climate Modeling Alliance Land model at the global scale and comparison to existing productsVegetation gross primary productivity, transpiration, and hyperspectral canopy radiative transfer are simulated simultaneouslyModeled fluxes and canopy reflectance and fluorescence well capture the spatial patterns across the globe compared to existing observations [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
