“…However, since the woody biomass measurements showed no significant differences between the two lee-and two wind-ward plots, the woody biomass was analysed considering four replicates. For the model calibrations, we retrieved information about the trees (planting density, management, yield, DOYplant, DOYharvest), crops (management, yield, DOYsow, DOYharvest), and soil physical characteristics (texture, structure, porosity, bulk density, organic matter) reported by Lamerre et al [23] and Swieter et al [20] for the site at Wendhausen and by Kanzler and Böhm [21] at Neu Sacro. This information, together with model ecophysiological parameters based on bibliography and expert knowledge, as instructed in Graves et al [29], Keesman et al [31], Burgess et al [33], and Wösten et al [36], created the data set used for the calibration of the model.…”
