makeExperimentTable: Make Experiment Master Table
In jdeines/salustools: Tools to Work with the SALUS Crop Model

Description Usage Arguments Details Examples

This function extracts Experiment level parameters from experiment combination strings that have been parsed into soil and weather parameters. Inputs are vectors of the same length, or single values to be repeated for all experiments. Outputs a data frame containing arguments needed for 'write_xdb_experiment'. See http://salusmodel.glg.msu.edu/salus.ddb.xml for more information about SALUS parameter options.

1 2	makeExperimentTable(runTitle, ExpID, mukey, wthID, ExpCode, startyear, Nyears, startDOY, cropfp, state = "KS")

`runTitle`	Name of overall run scenario
`ExpID`	Sequential ID for experiment
`mukey`	soil mukey from SSURGO
`wthID`	weather station ID
`ExpCode`	text string denoting sequence of annual climate-soil-crop-irrigation rotations, separated by '_'
`startyear`	year to start experiment
`Nyears`	Number of years in experiment
`startDOY`	Starting day of year, fills in SDOY parameter
`cropfp`	Filepath to crop .cdb.xml database file.
`state`	state, 2-letter abbreviation. defaults to 'KS'

All other SALUS Experiment parameters are set currently as default.
