 === Specific leaf area ===
-Similar to ORCHIDEE-CN, ORCHIDEE-CN-CAN users can choose to use a constant specific leaf area (SLA) or a dynamic (SLA) by setting the flag '''dyn_sla'''. SLA is a fundamental parameter in the allocation scheme and it is well established that SLA is dynamic in nature especially during leaf onset. The current implementation of dynamic SLA is basic and there is room to enhance consistency in the calculations, for example, by recalculation the allocation factors KF and LF as a function of SLA.

SLA is a fundamental parameter in the allocation scheme and it is well established that SLA is dynamic in nature especially during leaf onset. Nevertheless, the effect of this flag is much more limited than one could expect based on the perceived importance of sla.
