max_conductance | 33.1 |
Where: Table 7, parameter values for land covers in global temperate ecosystems, p. 286
Publishes maximum stomatal conductance gs of 33.1 mm s-1 for herbs, forbs and grasses.
Where: Table 2, model parameter values by surface type, p. 223
Republishes gi,max 33.1 mm s-1 for unirrigated grass and attributes the vegetation parameter lineage to Breuer et al. (2003).
Where: Sect. 3.2, model setup and parameters, p. 6
Establishes the later two-site UK application context but does not publish the 33.1 conductance.
| Name | curation required Grass follows Järvi's mapping of the Breuer herbs, forbs and grasses category, but the SE England qualifier is application context rather than the scope of the published statistic. |
|---|---|
| Target | supported Järvi maps the grass maximum conductance to the SUEWS grass surface category. |
| Values | supported Breuer et al. (2003) Table 7 publishes maximum stomatal conductance of 33.1 mm s-1 for herbs, forbs and grasses, exactly matching the stored value. |
| Source | supported Breuer et al. directly publish the exact maximum. Järvi et al. later compile 33.1 into the SUEWS vegetation table, while Ward et al. apply the configuration without republishing the parameter. issue #150 |
| Place | curation required Breuer reports a global temperate vegetation statistic, not an SE England determination. The stable place retains later application context and still needs curation. |
| Representativeness | curation required The parameter is a literature maximum compiled across temperate herbs, forbs and grasses. Calling the migrated application record regional SE England evidence is not established by the source. |
| Method | supported The record transcribes a summary statistic published in earlier literature. |
| Identity | curation required The related generic record carries the same value and source. Whether this stable SE England application path should remain as a separate quoted-default record is a curation decision; this source correction neither deletes nor merges it. |
The citation defect is settled without changing the value: Breuer et al. (2003) publishes the exact 33.1 mm s-1 maximum for herbs, forbs and grasses, and Järvi et al. later compile it for unirrigated grass in SUEWS; Ward et al. do not publish it. The stable SE England path, name, place and regional class are retained as migration/application identity rather than being treated as Breuer evidence. Human curation is still required because an equivalent generic Breuer record exists.
