Coupling of source (photosynthesis) and sink (growth, respiration,…) functions

At the example of a sunflower model developed as a teaching tool at the Bachelor level, this session will briefly introduce the coupling of the previously introduced photosynthesis model with a simple allocation model based on the central pool concept and redistribution of assimilates according to the relative sink strength method introduced by Leo Marcelis. You can find the presentation here}, the sunflower model is available for download here, and the standalone photosynthesis model by Kim and Lieth is available {{:workshops:summer_school_25:03_tuesday:klps.gsz|here
