standard_globals {TTR.PGM}R Documentation

Standard values for global parameters

Description

This vector contains the global parameter values for the process model, which must be supplied to the make_data() function. The time components are the units are per modelled time step and the length of these time steps are defined by the parameter seconds in make_data(). In the descriptions below M indicates dry mass of structural biomass (either shoot mass MS or root mass MR).

Usage

standard_globals

Format

An object of class numeric of length 13.

Jc

Substrate inhibition coefficient for carbon (kg C / kg M)

Jn

Substrate inhibition coefficient for nitrogen (in kg N / kg M)

q

Scaling coefficient for substrate transport, no units
