Vegetation

The Vegetation class contains some vegetation-related data.

In earlier versions of QHG, different vegetation types (grass, shrub, tree) were estimated from climate data, and from them, the net primary production was then calculated.

Newer paleo simulations by Axel Timmermann directly provide Net Primary Production (NPP).

Code:
Vegetation.h
Vegetation.cpp
