Soil C models in Python. Samuli Launiainen Luke 23.9.18

Models:

• DAMM (Dual Arhenius Michaelis-Menten kinetics; Davidson et al. 2012. Global Change Biol.)

• ICBM (Introductory Carbon Balance Model; Andren & Kätterer, 1997. Ecol. Appl. 7, 1226-1236)

• Millennium (Abramoff et al. 2017 Biogeochemistry). Note that there is something fishy in LMWC --> MAOM transfer; the Langmuir -absorption isotherm units and coefficients.
