 The problem is that ORCHIDEE already reads in fields of soil texture classes which were originally derived from soil orders. According to the soil texture classes, parameter related to soil hydrology are set. As the original data cannot be found anymore, ORCHIDEE will run with two independent sets of soil order specific parameters. Thereby inconsistencies between the phosphorus related parameters and the the hydrology related parameters can be introduced. The practice of reading in soil texture classes instead of soil orders is also problematic in respect of future developments and I suggest to change that.
 
+=== Stoichiometric flexibility ===
+Meyerholdt et al (2015) showed that model predictions best matched available data when the C:N ratios in all ecosystem pools except the wood pool were treated as flexible.
+Thus, we should make the CNP ratio of wood fixed.
