pft_all_VPRM_parameters: VPRM parameter set

In Timothy-W-Hilton/VPRMLandSfcModel: R implementation of VPRM with parameter estimation

VPRM parameter set

Description

This is the PFT–all-available-data parameter set described in Hilton et al (2013) section 2.3. PFT abbreviates "Plant Functional Type". The PFTs are from the IGBP land cover classification scheme (Loveland and Belward 1997).

Format

data frame containing values for the VPRM parameters lambda, PAR_0, alpha, and beta by plant functional type. The PFT variable is a factor with levels:

W

Water

ENF

Evergreen Needleleaf forest

EBF

Evergreen Broadleaf forest

DNF

Deciduous Needleleaf forest

DBF

Deciduous Broadleaf forest

MF

Mixed forest

CS

Closed shrublands

OS

Open shrublands

WS

Woody savannas

SAV

Savannas

GRA

Grasslands

WET

Permanent wetlands

CRO

Croplands

URB

Urban and built-up

CNM

Cropland/Natural vegetation mosaic

SNO

Snow and ice

BAR

Barren or sparsely vegetated

Note

pft_all_VPRM_parameters is part of the VPRM_parameters dataset

The parameter values were determined by optimizing to a set of 65 North American eddy covariance sites as described in Hilton et al (2013) section 2.3
