This behavior uses a modified Michaelis-Menton function to do height growth.
Parameter name | Description |
---|---|
Michaelis-Menton with Photoinhibition - Alpha | Alpha parameter. |
Michaelis-Menton with Photoinhibition - Beta | Beta parameter. Cannot be equal to zero. |
Michaelis-Menton with Photoinhibition - D | D parameter. |
Michaelis-Menton with Photoinhibition - Phi | Phi parameter. |
The amount of height growth is calculated as:
where:
If the timestep is more than one year long, growth is recalculated for each year of the timestep, increasing the height each time.
This behavior can be applied to seedlings, saplings, and adults of any species. Any tree species/type combination to which it is applied must also have a light behavior and a diameter growth behavior applied.
