quick_run

Calculate daily soil moisture and runoff

internal

This program calculates bioclimatic indices and fluxes (radiation,
evapotranspiration, soil moisture) for use in studies of ecosystem function,
species distribution, and vegetation dynamics under changing climate
scenarios. Predictions are based on a minimum of required inputs: latitude,
precipitation, air temperature, and cloudiness.
