| | 398 | The code allows for many more combinations than described above. Some of those configuration could be useful in specific cases but be aware of the following: |
| | 399 | * if the restart file for sechiba does not come from the same simulation/year as the restart file for stomate, the values for the variables that are stored in both sechiba and stomate will be overwritten by the values stored in the stomate restart file because that file is read later in the initialization phase. Some variables are duplicated because that adds the flexibility to the configuration that can be used to restart the model. |
| | 400 | * When '''read_lai''' is true, '''ok_stomate''' should be false. It may work but it is flawed from a conceptual point of view. read_lai was developed for cases where the model cannot simulate its own canopy. ok_stomate was developed so the model would simulate its own canopy. |
| | 401 | * Combining a sechiba restart from with '''impveg''', '''impsoil''' or '''laimap''' may result in values from the restart file being overwritten because impveg, impsoil and laimap are checked after reading the sechiba restart file. |
| | 402 | * NCO commands could be used to hack into the restart file. This could be powerful when stomate is used and one wants to restart the model after a spin-up but also want that the forest starts growing the first year of the simulation. In that case circ_class_biomass and circ_class_n should be set to zero. This approach is straightforward when no age classes are used. When age classes are used many more variables need to be moved to the correct PFT to avoid conflicts. |
