OnepModel: Implementation of a one pool model

In SoilR: Models of Soil Organic Matter Decomposition

Implementation of a one pool model

Description

This function creates a model for one pool. It is a wrapper for the more general function GeneralModel.

Usage

OnepModel(t, k, C0, In, xi = 1, solver = deSolve.lsoda.wrapper, pass = FALSE)

Arguments

t	A vector containing the points in time where the solution is sought.
k	A scalar with the decomposition rate of the pool.
C0	A scalar containing the initial amount of carbon in the pool.
In	A scalar or a data.frame object specifying the amount of litter inputs by time.
xi	A scalar or a data.frame specifying the external (environmental and/or edaphic) effects on decomposition rates.
solver	A function that solves the system of ODEs. This can be euler or deSolve.lsoda.wrapper or any other user provided function with the same interface.
pass	if TRUE forces the constructor to create the model even if it is invalid
