Calculation of parameter values based on observations for the herbaceous biomass plantation PFT representing Miscanthus in JSBACH3.2

This dataset provides the calculation of parameter values and the observational data that was collected from literature used in these calculations for the re-implementation of a herbaceous biomass plantation (HBP) PFT representing Miscanthus in the dynamic global vegetation model (DGVM) JSBACH3.2 (Egerer et al. subm., Nützel et al. in prep.). The parameters included are the maximum rubisco capacity (Vmax) at 25°C, the PEPcase CO2 specificity (k) and specific leaf area (SLA). Some of the observed parameter values were already compiled in a dataset by Li et al. (2018). These observations were therefore re-used in this dataset (which is specified within the dataset sheets) and complemented with additional observed values from literature that has become available since then or was not included in the study by Li et al. (2018). A detailed methodology of the parameter calculations for JSBACH3.2 can be found on the first sheet of the dataset.
