The pyrealm package

The pyrealm package provides Python implementations of models of plant productivity and demography. The package is in active development and currently provides the following modules:

Module overview

The pmodel module

Fitting the P Model, which is an ecophysiological model of optimal carbon dioxide uptake by plants (Prentice et al., 2014, Stocker et al., 2020, Wang et al., 2017), along with various extensions.

The tmodel module

Estimating plant allocation of gross primary productivity to growth and respiration, using the T Model (Li et al., 2014).

The hygro module

Provides functions for converting common hygrometric variables to vapour pressure deficit for use in the P Model.
