Overview
Vegetation Model handles information about vegetation cover and interacts with atmosphere and soil properties. Vegetation dynamics can be handled by the model in two different manners: i) reading from file (time serie, hdf, grid); ii) using a vegetation growth model. The first option is the previous formulation where LAI and root depth properties are provided by user and water uptake is simulated. The second option uses a SWAT based vegetation growth model and plant biomass, LAI, nutrient content and nutrient uptake are explicitly simulated.
SWAT vegetation growth model uses the concepts from EPIC crop model (Izaurralde et al., 2006) of radiation-use efficiency by which a fraction of daily photosynthetically active radiation is intercepted by the plant canopy and converted into plant biomass. Gains in plant biomass are affected by vapor pressure deficits and atmospheric CO2 concentration. Stress indices for water, temperature, nitrogen, phosphorus and aeration are calculated using the value of the most severe of these stresses to reduce potential plant growth and crop yield. Nutrient uptake is done based on plant target (optimal content) and availability in soil.
Concepts
Property
Vegetation model was redesigned to be structured in properties instead of vegetation types. The advantage of this structure is that in the input file the number of properties is fixed (no matter the complexity of the vegetation cover) and input can be preprocessed for the entire grid (see How to pre-process vegetation). In the previous structure, applications with several vegetation covers could rapidly increase input file lines and input errors. More over as they are not graphed in time serie or hdf the visual inspection could take longer.
See the list of allowed properties names
How to Pre-Process Vegetation
Fill Matrix was updated to fill grids without interpolation. Instead of space stations (X,Y coordinate) user has to provide a vegetation grid with ID's and the values assigned to each ID (time serie or single value). Fill Matrix reads ID in the grid and searches for the value to fill the cell. If cells are not filled error message is sent. See FillMatrix for more details
Main processes
Vegetation is readed from file
If the user chooses the option to simulate vegetation giving properties evolution from file (hdf5, grid), than leaf area index and root depth properties must be given. This option correspond to the old formulation and, yet, only water uptake is simulated.
Water Uptake
Vegetation is explicitly simulated - Growth Model
If the user chooses the option to simulate explicitly vegetation, than plant biomass, root biomass, LAI, canopy height and nutrient content, are simulated.
Water Uptake
total plant biomass
total plant nitrogen
total plant phosphorus
root biomass
root depth
canopy height
Other Features
Outputs
Time series
To write time series results define keyword:
TIME_SERIE : 1
in each property that you wish to write results.
Box integration
Maps (HDF5 format)
To write 3D results use keyword OUTPUT_TIME and define keyword:
OUTPUT_HDF : 1
in each property that you wish to write results.
