Eilers_PI_mod: Eilers photosynthesis irradiance curve with varying y...

Description Usage Arguments Author(s) References See Also Examples

Description

Uses the Eilers photosynthesis irradiance curve with an extra parameter allowing for a varying y-intercept. This allows for negative rates of photosynthesis to be modelled.

Usage

1
Eilers_PI_mod(Pmax, Iopt, a, I, c)

Arguments

Pmax

The photosynthetic maxima

Iopt

The optimal light intensity

a

The initial slope of the curve

I

Light

c

The y intercept controlling the height of the curve
