% Define constants
resolution              = 'onedegree';      % choose resolution: onedegree, halfdegree, quarterdegree etc. When not doing a global analysis the calculateLatitude should be adjusted

NPPequilibriumYear      = 3;                % number of iteration years necessary to get soil moisture (and thus NPP and the decay scalars) in equilibrium. 3 is okay
POOLSequilibriumYear    = 100;              % number of iteration years necessary to get carbonpools in equilibrium. ~200 years for aboveground pools, ~3000 when interested in all pools or NEP

Q10                     = 2.50;             % effect of temperature on soil fluxes
EMAX                    = 0.70;             % Maximum Light Use Efficiency

aboveWoodFraction       = 0.75;             % fraction of wood that is above ground
herbivoreEff            = 0.50;             % efficiency of herbivory (part autotrophic respiration, part to surface litter pools)

numberOfAgeClasses      = 1;                % number of age classes. Set this to 1 to run without age classes.
