NPPmodel | R Documentation |
This is an empirical function for deriving net primary production using climatic variables (mean temperature and rainfall amounts)
NPPmodel(rain,temperature,model)
rain |
total annual rainfall amount in mm |
temperature |
average annual air temperature amount in degrees Celsius |
model |
model for calculating net primary production. Included models in the function are Miami, Schurr, and NCEAS |
This function is based on empirical models for calculating annual net primary production (NPP) of dry matter
Net primary production (NPP) of dry matter in grams per square meter per year
This empirical function estimates annual NPP in g/m2/year. It is a general model for all land cover types. It may be necessary to adjust it for certain cover types or geolocations
