Use of <variable> identifier in file names for biomes & permafrost models


Posted on Jan. 11, 2017

The identifiers <variable> might also contain information about the plant functional type (in the biomes and permafrost sectors). The pft naming is model-specific and hence has to be reported in theimpact-model database entries for each model (www.isimip.org/impactmodels). In the forestry sector the identifier <variable> might contain information about the tree species. The species names codes are listed in Table 14 of te protocol.
