root_params

def root_params(
    rootvar:type=RootVar
)->RootVar:

Set fine root parameters.

Returns:

• RootVar updated object:

  • radius: Fine root radius (m). Default = 0.29e-03

  • density: Fine root density (g biomass / m3 root). Default = 0.31e06

  • resist: Hydraulic resistivity of root tissue (MPa.s.g/mmol H2O). Default 25.0

Example root_params()

root_var = RootVar()
pprint(vars(root_params(rootvar=root_var)))

{'biomass': 0.0, 'density': 310000.0, 'radius': 0.00029, 'resist': 25.0}
