This model uses FAO’s [[Soil | This model uses FAO’s [[Soil characteristics|harmonised soil map]] of the world as its main external input, to provide information on soil texture and hydraulic properties. Climate input data come from the [[Atmospheric composition and climate]] model. To create an equilibrium of terrestrial carbon pools at the start of a simulation, a 700-year spin-up run is carried out. The carbon stocks and fluxes have been compared to IPCC estimates ([[IPCC, 2007a]]) and are well within the uncertainty range. The modelled distribution of plant functional types has been compared to other data sources (RefXXX). | ||
