Variable-naming conventions modified


Posted on Nov. 5, 2018

The naming conventions in the agriculture, biomes, forest and biodiversity (and water, if agricultural variables are supplied) sector have been changed. Additional specifiers (e.g., for crops, irrigation settings, plant functional types) are now to be separated by hyphens, as described in Table 26.

Therefore, variable names must consist of only one word (no hyphens). Therefore, e.g., "maty-day" is to be changed to "matyday".

The example file name in section 3.1.1 has been adapted accordingly to reflect these new rules.
