The dvm-dos-tem (dvmdostem
) model is a process based bio-geo-chemical ecosystem
model that focuses on C and N dynamics as well as soil thermal dynamics in high
latitude ecosystems.
For complete documentation of the latest release, see the website: http://ua-snap.github.io/dvm-dos-tem/index.html
NOTE: Sept 2022, we are in the process of updating the entire documentation system. There is still info scattered across this README, the wiki, a Google Doc and the Sphinx system (published here: http://ua-snap.github.io/dvm-dos-tem/index.html), but we are working on consolidating the info into primarily the Sphinx system.
Whats with the name?
dvm-dos-tem
is short for "Dynamic Vegetation [Model] Dynamic Organic Soil Terrestrial Ecosystem Model". Orignally the model was simply "TEM", and as more logic and capabilities have been added, the name has grown. We still frequently use simply "TEM" because it is less cumbersome for writing and typing.
