DCHM-V Gross Primary Productivity

 Difference in average daily GPP between the control and experimental simulations over the course of the hurricane season.

The data sets below are time-variant gross primary productivity (GPP) outputs from the Duke Coupled Hydrology Model with Vegetation (DCHM-V). All time-variant data are provided in binary files. Please click here for the description of the data format and sample codes for reading binary files.

 

Control Simulation: Modelled GPP using the control atmospheric forcing data.

 

Experimental Simulation: Modelled GPP using the reduced atmospheric forcing data, where periods of tropical cyclone activity are replaced with climatology.

 

For further description of these data, please see Lowman and Barros (2016).

 

Data Access: To access these data, please contact Lauren Lowman at lel7@duke.edu .
