LPJmL is a Dynamic Global Vegetation Model (abbrTemplate|DGVM]]) that was developed initially to assess the role of the terrestrial biosphere in the global carbon cycle ([[Prentice et al., 2007]]). DGVMs simulate vegetation distribution and dynamics, using the concept of multiple plant functional types ({{abbrtemplate|PFT}}s) differentiated according to their bioclimatic (e.g. temperature requirement), physiological, morphological, and phenological (e.g. growing season) attributes, and competition for resources (light and water). | LPJmL is a Dynamic Global Vegetation Model (abbrTemplate|DGVM]]) that was developed initially to assess the role of the terrestrial biosphere in the global carbon cycle ([[Prentice et al., 2007]]).
