Simulation output remains the same as the previous version. However, output of the new plant functional types are renamed and include additional variables. Parallelization in the SWMPI mode of SOILWAT2 now uses a simplified internal approach that no longer separates simulation computations from input and output processes (#475; @N1ckP3rsl3y). Soil temperature at the lower boundary can now be approximated by a long-term moving window of mean annual air temperature that is updated yearly (#466; @dschlaep, @N1ckP3rsl3y). Vegetation (currently, fractional cover of bare ground and vegetation types) can now be estimated dynamically from predictors based on soil properties and long-term and short-term moving windows of climate conditions that are updated yearly (#396; @N1ckP3rsl3y, @dschlaep). Vegetation is now represented with six (previously, four) plant functional types (#472; @dschlaep). treeNL: needle-leaved trees treeBL: broad-leaved trees shrub: shrubs forbs: forbs grassC3: grasses with a C3 photosynthetic pathway grassC4: grasses with a C4 photosynthetic pathway The rooting profiles no longer must start at the surface and may now have gaps (@dschlaep). The (internal) addtl_yr is now removed. It represented an offset between values of the calendar years of the simulation period and the calendar years used for atmospheric CO2 concentration values. rSOILWAT2 previously used it for an outdated approach to create simulation runs at different time periods. Changes to inputs New input via "siteparam.in" that specifies the method for soil temperature at the lower boundary. New inputs via "veg.in" that specify if vegetation should be estimated dynamically and that specify durations of the short-term and long-term moving windows (for dynamic vegetation and soil temperature at the lower boundary). New input via "veg.in" and "veg*.nc" to provide parameters for the new plant functional types. All inputs are now consistently ordered by plant functional type. New input via "soils.in" and "soil.nc" to specify the rooting profiles for the new plant functional types. All variables in "soils.in" have been re-organized. New input via "nc-inputs.tsv" to describe parameters of the new plant functional types. Changes to outputs Output contains additional variables for the new plant functional types.
