Recent Releases of LPJmL

LPJmL - LPJmL version 6.0.6 with default set to public input data set and closed local balance checks

Source code of the LPJmL model version 6.0.6, which uses a new public data set (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.19064225) as the default input configuration (v6.0.5) and fixed all local balance checks. The code is some patch updates implemented on top of a newly developed methane-enabled model version with dynamic wetlands [^1], see CHANGELOG.md for details.
This version is based on version 5.10.2, built on the combination of LPJmL4 [^2] and LPJmL5 [^3] and various model feature developments, including tillage [^4], forest [^5], tea [^6], cotton [^7], and oil palm [^8] plantations, cover crops [^9], livestock grazing [^10], carbon-costly biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) [^11], and a fix to the nitrogen demand and uptake dynamics [^12].
