Description
|
retained_carbon_fraction
|
fraction ranging from 0-1.
|
Fraction of carbon translocated from leaf to storage before leaf scenecence
|
theta_crit
|
fraction ranging from 0-1.
|
This is a soil water threshold. When soil water (as a fraction of saturation) sinks below this threshold, drought deciduous plants drop their leaves. When soil water (as a fraction of saturation) rises above this threshold, drought deciduous plants flush their leaves.
