- Type:
logical
- Default:
F
Switch for using trait-based physiology.
- TRUE
Vcmax is calculated based on observed leaf traits. Leaf nitrogen (nmass: kgN kgLeaf-1) and leaf mass (LMA: kgLeaf m-2) can be based on observations from the TRY database. Vcmax (umol CO2 m-2 s-1) is based on linear regressions as in Kattge et al. 2009. Two additional parameters are needed: vint and vsl - the intercept and slope, respectively, that relate the leaf nitrogen to vcmax. Sigl is replaced with LMA (sigl=LMA*Cmass, where Cmass is the kgC kgLeaf-1 and is 0.4).
- FALSE
Vcmax is calculated based on parameters nl0 (kgN kgC-1) and neff.

.- TRUE
veg1
accumulatesg_leaf_phen_acc

- TRUE
Respiring stem mass is derived allometrically.
- FALSE
Respiring stem mass varies with seasonal LAI.
In the case of a Broadleaf tree in the winter (no leaves) this would mean stem respiration is scaled to 0.
- JULES_VEGETATION::l_scale_resp_pm¶
- Type:
logical

F
Scale whole plant maintenance respiration by the soil moisture stress factor, instead of only scaling leaf respiration.

crop_io
parameter.- TRUE
In the non-agricultural area natural PFT competition is calculated by a call to a new version of the lotka routine and in each agricultural area agricultural-PFT competition is calculated by an additional call to the new version of the lotka routine. Crop and pasture areas are defined by the
frac_agr
andfrac_past
variables respectively. Additionally, to represent harvesting, a fraction of crop litter is added to the fast wood products pool instead of the soil carbon pools.- FALSE
Vegetation competition is calculated for natural and crop PFTs together, with natural PFTs excluded from the agricultural area that is defined by the

frac_agr
,frac_past
,frac_biocrop
variables respectively. Harvests are permitted from any land class and enabled for each PFT separately using theharvest_type_io
variable. Harvesting may be continuous (as per the existing scheme inl_trif_crop
, whenharvest_type_io
is 1), or performed at prescribed intervals defined using theharvest_freq_io
andharvest_ht_io

- JULES_VEGETATION::can_model¶
- Type:
integer
- Permitted:
1-4
- Default:
4
Choice of canopy model for vegetation:
No distinct canopy (i.e. surface is represented as a single entity for radiative processes).
Radiative canopy with no heat capacity.
Radiative canopy with heat capacity. This option is deprecated, with 4 preferred.
As 3 but with a representation of snow beneath the canopy. This option is preferred to 3.
Note
can_model
= 1 does not mean that there is novegetation canopy. It means that the surface is represented as a single entity, rather than having distinct surface and canopy levels for the purposes of radiative processes.
- JULES_VEGETATION::can_rad_mod¶
- Type:
integer
- Permitted:
1, 4, 5, 6
- Default:
4
Options for treatment of canopy radiation.
A single canopy layer for which radiation absorption is calculated using Beer’s law. Leaf-level photosynthesis is scaled to the canopy level using the ‘big leaf’ approach. Leaf nitrogen, photosynthetic capacity, i.e the Vcmax parameter, and leaf photosynthesis vary exponentially through the canopy with radiation.
Multi-layer approach for radiation interception following the two-stream approach of Sellers et al. (1992). This approach takes into account leaf angle distribution, zenith angle, and differentiates absorption of direct and diffuse radiation. It has an exponential decline of leaf N through the canopy and includes inhibition of leaf respiration in the light. Canopy photosynthesis and conductance are calculated as the sum over all layers.
This is an improvement of option 4, including:
Sunfleck penetration though the canopy.
Division of sunlit and shaded leaves within each canopy level.
A modified version of inhibition of leaf respiration in the light.
This is an improvement of option 5, including an exponential decline of leaf N with canopy height proportional to LAI, following Beer’s law.
Note
can_rad_mod
= 1 and 6 are recommended.Note
When using
can_rad_mod
= 4, 5 or 6 it is recommended to use driving data that contains direct and diffuse radiation separately rather than a constant diffuse fraction.See also

.
- JULES_VEGETATION::l_limit_canhc¶
- Type:
logical
- Default:
F
Switch for limiting the canopy heat capacity for vegetation, which is calculated from the canopy height.

Note
When

inJULES_VEGETATION_PROPS
. Whenphoto_acclim_model

- Activation energies vary by PFT but not by land point, and are NOT subject to acclimation.
- Activation energies vary by land point but not by PFT, and are subject to acclimation.
Note

andact_vcmax_io
. Whenphoto_act_model

- J25 is found by scaling V25 by the given ratio J25/V25, that is, all the variation in the ratio comes from varying J25 (while V25 remains fixed).
- J25 and V25 are calculated assuming that the total amount of nitrogen allocated to photosynthesis remains constant, thus any change in J25 requires a compensatory change in V25 - as used in Mercado et al. (2018).
Warning
A value of 1 (simple scaling) must be used if
photo_acclim_model
= 0 (no adaptation or acclimation).
Only used with photo_jv_model
= 2.
- JULES_VEGETATION::n_alloc_jmax¶
- Type:
real
- Default:
None
Constant relating nitrogen allocation to Jmax (mol CO2 m-2 s-1 [kg m-2]-1). This is 5.3 in Eq.5 of Mercado et al. (2018).
- JULES_VEGETATION::n_alloc_vcmax¶
- Type:
real
- Default:
None
Constant relating nitrogen allocation to Vcmax (mol CO2 m-2 s-1 [kg m-2]-1). This is 3.8 in Eq.5 of Mercado et al. (2018).
Only used with thermal adaptation or acclimation of photosynthesis (photo_acclim_model
= 1, 2 or 3).
The thermal adaptation/acclimation scheme in JULES is structured following Eq. 13 of Kumarathunge et al. (2019), in which C3 photosynthetic capacity is allowed to vary at each land point as a function of a static home temperature (Th) and a dynamic growth temperature (Tg). This is achieved by calculating five parameters used in the Farquhar photosynthesis scheme as functions of those temperature fields, rather than using fixed parameters from JULES_PFTPARM
. Each parameter, Q, is calculated as a linear function of Th and Tg:
Q(Th, Tg) = Qcoef(0) + Qcoef(1) Th + Qcoef(2) Tg.
The following namelist members specify the coefficients, Qcoef, used for each parameter. Note that, in each case, the units for Qcoef(1) and Qcoef(2) have an extra factor K-1 relative to the units for Qcoef(0). This structure can be configured to represent the acclimation scheme of Kattge and Knorr (2007), as used by Mercado et al. (2018), and the scheme of Kumarathunge et al. (2019).
Note
If photo_acclim_model
= 1 is used all Qcoef(2) must equal 0.0, and if photo_acclim_model
= 2 is used all Qcoef(1) must equal 0.0.

- Type:
real(3)

= 2 or 3).
- JULES_VEGETATION::n_day_photo_acclim¶
- Type:
real
- Default:
None
