FUSION/FISSION <fusefiss></fusefiss>

Parameters controlling the fusion and fission of patches and cohorts due to disturbance, recruitment, aging, etc.

<caption>&lt;fusefiss&gt;&lt;/fusefiss&gt;</caption>
Variable Units Description
min_recruitment_size kgC/m2 threshold for recruit formation.
min_dbh_class cm Minimum dbh class in patch profiling
min_hgt_class m Minimum height class for patch profiling
maxdbh cm Maximum dbh class in patch profiling
fusetol cm Cohort fusion tolerance (DBH)
fusetol_h m Cohort fusion tolerance (HEIGHT)
lai_fuse_tol (m2 leaf) / (m2 ground) Cohort fusion tolerance (LAI)
lai_tol (m2 leaf) / (m2 ground) Cohort splitting tolerance (LAI)
ntol (#/m2) Min plant density for height bin to be usind in height profile comparisons
profile_tol dimensionless Fractional tolerance for patch pft height comparisons
max_patch_age years Maximum patch age for fusion
