alfam2pars: Default Parameter Sets for the ALFAM2 Model

In ALFAM2: Dynamic Model of Ammonia Emission from Field-Applied Manure

Default Parameter Sets for the ALFAM2 Model

Description

These default parameter sets can be used to generate average predictions for the alfam2 function. They are described in the papers cited below.

Usage

alfam2pars01
alfam2pars02
alfam2pars03

Details

In general, the latest default parameter set (highest version number) should be used. Set 1 was presented in Hafner et al. (2019), 2 in Hafner et al. (2021, 2024a), and 3 in Hafner et al. (2024b). See vignette for more details.
