mainfun: Main function

In VEZY/DynACof: A Process-Based Model to Study Growth, Yield and Ecosystem Services of Coffee Agroforestry Systems

Description

This is the main function of the model that calls all other functions (meteorology, shade tree, soil) and computes the Coffea simulation. This function is called by DynACof() under the hood, and users should always call DynACof() instead of this function because it imports the files, format the simulation inputs, checks for errors, takes care automatically of the computation distribution along nodes, and format the outputs.

Usage

mainfun(cy, Direction, Meteo, Parameters)

Arguments

cy	The growing cycle (crop rotation)
Direction	Simulation directives as a data.frame
Meteo	Meteorology data.frame
Parameters	Simulation parameters

Details

The Direction data.frame has to contain at least one column named Cycle that denotes the crop rotation, Plot_Age, an integer for the plot age, Plot_Age_num for the plot age as a continuous variable (see example).

Value

The simulation output as a data.frame.
