Re-Implementation of the Classical SALMO Model
Status: work in progress (alpha)
The current implementation employs the Gujer-Petersen Matrix notation and the R package rodeo to generate fast Fortran code, that is then solved as initial value problem using the deSolve package in R.
The current version implements a single layer, which could be useful for shallow lakes. It could also serve as a starting point for a 1D version coupled to a hydrophysical driver or for further work on the biogeochemical process descriptions.
Installation and Getting started
