Urban Tethys-Chloris (UT&C v1.0)
(2019)Urban Tethys-Chloris (UT&C v1.0) is a mechanistic urban ecohydrological model combining principles of ecohydrological land surface modelling with urban canopy modelling. UT&C is a fully coupled energy and water balance model that calculates 2 m air temperature, 2 m humidity, and surface temperatures. It explicitly resolves biophysical and ecophysiological characteristics of ground vegetation, urban trees, and green roofs and models all ...Model -

Bio-economic model on weed control in maize production (version II)
(2018)The bio-economic model calculates optimal weed control strategies for cultivation of silage maize in North-Rhine-Westphalia and can be used to simulate agri-environmental policy scenarios such as a glyphosate ban. The model can be used to assess changes in the Energy Output and the Load of the used pesticides under different scenarios. The model is described in detail in the following article: Böcker, T., Britz, W., Möhring, N., Finger, ...Model -

ROMS+NPZD model data: turbulent and mesoscale contribution to the transport of organic carbon in the Canary Upwelling System
(2018)NetCDF files containing the data produced by the model ROMS+NPZD using the Atlantic telescopic grid. Files contain: the results of the Reynolds decmposition fo the 3D organic carbon fluxes into mean and turbulent fluxes, the results of the structure-based eddy and filament decomposition of the3D organic carbon fluxes, the 2-day mean output of the total organic carbon concentration and its turbulent deviation from the mean and of SST and SSH.Model -
Bio-economic model on weed control in cultivation of wheat
(2018)Strategies to prevent and control pest pressure are required to efficiently produce high quality food products. However, the use of pesticides is associated with potential risks to humans and the environment, motivating policy actions in Switzerland and other European countries. Especially the widespread use of herbicides is increasingly criticised. The goal of this work to investigate the implications of a ban or a voluntary removal of ...Model -

Alpine Land-Use Allocation Model (ALUAM)
(2017)The Alpine Land-Use Allocation Model (ALUAM) is a spatially explicit, agent-based land-use model. The model is calibrated and validated for the Visp region, an inner-alpine mountain area in Switzerland. ALUAM had been used in various scientific case studies addressing climate change, ecosystem service provision and policy evaluation.Model -
A real-option farm-level model on investment in perennial energy crops under risk considerations
(2017)The stochastic dynamic optimization model documented in here simulates decisions of an arable farm with respect to long-term investment based on a compound American option. The implemented application is an investment in short-rotation coppice (SRC). SRC uses fast-growing trees that, once they are set-up, are coppiced several times and finally cleared-up. Time and scale of SRC introduction, intermediate harvest quantities, and final ...Model -
Bio-economic model on weed management in maize production
(2017)The bio-economic model calculates optimal weed control strategies for cultivation of silage maize in North-Rhine-Westphalia and can be used to simulate agri-environmental policy scenarios such as a glyphosate ban. The model is described in detail in the following article: Böcker, T., Britz, W., Finger, R. (2017). Modelling the effects of a glyphosate ban on weed management in silage maize production.
