Create new biomes by splitting up an existing biome

Distributes vegetation, detritus, and soil C, and initial NPP flux from an existing biome across multiple new biomes.

Usage

split_biome(
  core,
  old_biome,
  new_biomes,
  fveg_c = rep(1/length(new_biomes), length(new_biomes)),
  fdetritus_c = fveg_c,
  fsoil_c = fveg_c,
  fpermafrost_c = fveg_c,
  fnpp_flux0 = fveg_c,
  ...
)

Arguments

core: Hector core
old_biome: Name of biome that will be split up
new_biomes: Names of biomes to be created
fveg_c: Fractions of vegetation C distributed to each biome in new_biomes; must be the same length as it. Default is to split vegetation C evenly between all biomes.
fdetritus_c: Fractions of detritus C distributed to each biome. Defaults to the same value as fveg_c.
fsoil_c: Fractions of soil C distributed to each biome. Defaults to the same value as fveg_c.
fpermafrost_c: Fraction of permafrost C distributed to each biome. Defaults to the same value as fveg_c.
fnpp_flux0: Fraction of initial NPP flux distributed to each biome. Defaults to the same value as fveg_c.
...: Additional biome parameters passed to create_biome.
