    6666* '''N uptake by plants'''. See eq. (8) p. 3 of SM of Zaehle & Friend, 2010. In OCN, there was a multiplicative factor "2" that I can not explain (see [source:branches/orchidee-N/ORCHIDEE/src_stomate/stomate_soilcarbon.f90@19#L897 here]). It may partly compensate (half compensation) the error mentioned above about conv_fac. 
    6767 
     68* '''Coefficient K_N_min'''. It corresponds to the [NH4+] (resp. [NO3-]) for which the Nuptake equals vmax/2. Kronzucker, 1995 reports values that range between 20 and 40 umol for NH4+ uptake. OCN seems to use 30 umol for both NH4+ and NO3-, because the value used in the code of OCN expressed in (gN m-2) is 0.84 (see [source:branches/orchidee-N/ORCHIDEE/src_stomate/stomate_soilcarbon.f90@19#L897 here]). In addition, in Kronzucker, 1995 and 1996, the concentrations are always expressed in umol. There is no clear reference about the standard volume it is related to. I assumed it is litter.
