SIPNET

SIPNET (Simplified Photosynthesis and Evapotranspiration Model) is an ecosystem model designed to efficiently simulate carbon and water dynamics. Originally developed for assimilation of eddy covariance flux data in forest ecosystems, current development is focused on representing carbon balance and GHG fluxes and agricultural management practices.

Quick Start

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/PecanProject/sipnet.git
   cd sipnet

2. Build the SIPNET executable:

    make

3. Change directory and run a test simulation:

   cd tests/smoke/niwot
   ../../../sipnet -i sipnet.in

4. Check the output:

   cat niwot.out

Getting Started

Installing

See the quickstart above.

Executing the Program

Running Tests

Smoke Tests

From the root sipnet directory, run:

./tests/smoke/run_smoke.sh

The end of the output from that script should be:

=======================
SUMMARY:
Skipped directories: 0
SIPNET OUTPUT:
Passed:  5/5
Failed:  0
EVENT OUTPUT:
Passed:  5/5
Failed:  0
CONFIG OUTPUT:
Passed:  5/5
Failed:  0
=======================

Unit Tests

Build and run the unit tests with the script:

./tools/run_unit_tests.sh

The summary block at the end should show PASSED for each test.
