Change driver data for under-canopy PFT in mixed systems #147

Description

@dlebauer

This is an idea to consider that came up in a meeting. Capturing here for consideration.

When adding herbaceous ground cover to orchard, reduce solar radiation in met driver data during data prep step as a way of simulating orchard canopy shade.

Considerations:

  • This is a very coarse approximation - it does not capture e.g. moisture, temperature, actual canopy cover
  • It may not be necessary if tuning mixing ratios is sufficient to capture effect direction
  • Seems straightforward to implement, but may be difficult to calibrate / tune.
  • Our focus is on developing the overall workflows that could be later adapted to support models with multi-pft support.
