run_ctool: run_ctool

In rCTOOL: Soil Organic Carbon Turnover Modelling with 'C-TOOL'

run_ctool

Description

Run C-TOOL over the full simulation period.

Usage

run_ctool(
  time_config,
  cin_config,
  m_config,
  t_config,
  s_config,
  soil_pools,
  verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

time_config	Time configuration object created by 'define_timeperiod()'.
cin_config	Carbon input configuration.
m_config	Management configuration with monthly allocation patterns.
t_config	Monthly temperature configuration containing at least 'month' and 'Tavg'.
s_config	Soil parameter configuration.
soil_pools	Initial soil pool configuration.
verbose	Logical; if 'TRUE', run balance checking.

Details

Iteratively applies 'turnover()' over all timesteps defined in 'time_config' and returns monthly carbon pool sizes, soil carbon stocks, transport fluxes and CO2 emissions.

The temperature configuration must provide monthly mean air temperature. A single historical annual temperature amplitude is calculated internally from the monthly climatology of 'Tavg' and is used in the soil temperature response function.

Value

A data.frame containing the monthly simulation output across the full simulation period.
