NUETON (version 0.1.0)

sNUE: Calculate NUE of a System (sNUE)

Description

The fraction of system N outputs that are captured as N yield rather than lost to the environment Calculate sNUE using the formula: sNUE = (YieldN / (YieldN + Nloss))

Usage

sNUE(YieldN, Nloss)

Value

The calculated sNUE value.

Arguments

YieldN

Observed crop yield vector that is attributed to the nitrogen inputs in the system

Nloss

The value of nitrogen that is lost from the system and not utilized by the crops.
