Set of high-level functions used in the calculation of stomatal conductance and transpiration.
Function transp_profitMaximization calculates gain and cost functions,
as well as profit maximization from supply and photosynthesis input functions.
Function transp_stomatalRegulationPlot produces a plot with the cohort supply functions against water potential
and a plot with the cohort photosynthesis functions against water potential, both with the maximum profit values indicated.
Arguments
- supplyFunction
Water supply function (see
hydraulics_supplyFunctionNetwork).- photosynthesisFunction
Function returned by
photo_photosynthesisFunction().- Gswmin, Gswmax
Minimum and maximum stomatal conductance to water vapour (mol·m-2·s-1).
Value
Function transp_profitMaximization returns a list with the following elements:
Cost: Cost function [0-1].Gain: Gain function [0-1].Profit: Profit function [0-1].iMaxProfit: Index corresponding to maximum profit (starting from 0).
