thank you for your message and for using spotpy.
Do you have a particular method in mind that should be implemented. If so, I could check out the reference and see what I can do. If not, why not using the likelihood funtion as it is with your crop yield data and alter it, however you like, based on the LAI value. Maybe something like this:
def objectivefunction(self,simulation,evaluation):
LAI_penality_factor = 1.5
crop yield = simulation[0]
LAI = simulation[1]
like = spotpy.likelihoods.gaussianLikelihoodMeasErrorOut(evaluation, crop_yield)
if LAI<3 or LAI>7:
like=like*LAI_penality_factor
return like
I guess one could also come up with a more dynamical penality factor.

Hi, everyone!
I am using the dream method in spotpy to calibrate crop growth model.
I only have crop yield data as observation to build likelihood function but I also wish the simulated leave dynamics(max LAI) in the plausible range(3-7). So I am wondering whether " is it possible to add a penalty term to the likelihood function based on the simulation value?"
I know this is because 1. my observation data is so little and 2. it is hard for me to set parameters range. I'm not too familiar with the Bayesian method，any suggestion will be appreciated.
