How to calculate the missing values in SBuild tool #426

Closed JongChao closed 1 month ago

JongChao commented 1 month ago

Hi, The SBuild tool can calculate missing values, including SLL, SDUL, SAT, SSKS, BD, and SRGF, according to some basic soil paremeters. What's the method used here? I'm preparing soil data by R. Where can I find related code of these method? Hope to get your help. SBuild

Hi @JongChao, I recommend reading the following papers, which can give some details on some of the pedotransfer functions that DSSAT uses based on the available soil variables (e.g., Table 1 of Gijsman et al., 2002). Because this is a question about the model use more than the code, next time, you can submit your question in the following link https://dssat.net/contact-us/

@lpmorenoc Many thanks for your detailed reply. I'll read the paper.
