Parameters missing from the model about ascotracer HOT 12 CLOSED

0.220. It's in the table of the thesis chapter I shared

from ascotracer.

Missing parameters

1. Distance due to rain splash
2. Distance due to wind
3. Spore deposition
4. Rainfall threshold
5. Potentially infective spore pro
6. The duration for which when a new growing point is susceptible
7. Base temperature for spore growth

from ascotracer.

I have not finished adding parameters, these will likely be in the parameters when I am done

from ascotracer.

I can add them if you like.

If you could add sporesPerInfectiveGPPerWetHour which needs to be passed down to the potentially_infective_spores function
For now that would be good, I'll start review the need to add others.
Ones like 6. "The duration for which when a new growing point is susceptible" are already in there

from ascotracer.

By definition, it would be the number of spores per infective grouping point (lesion) in a wet hour. It's value is 0.15 in the model script - the low value is counter intuitive (it should be in thousands), so I searched the entire model script. Turns out that it's been defined, but not being used in the functions. I searched both Art and Diggle papers, it's not there either. I think this is redundant like many others that have been defined but not actually used. By the way sporesPerInfectiveGPPerWetHour is not listed in the table of parameters listed above.

I beleive the parameter is variable dependant on the cultivar and is the value Spi
The Diggle paper give 3 possible values, 0.25, 0.43 or 3.70 to each respective cultivar Wonga , Myallie and Kiev Mutant.
The 0.15 value is what is given in the Mathematica code, this might be a parameter that needs consideration for the Chickpea varieties.

That would be spore rate. I have written in the methods - taken from Coventry.

What value did they find fit the observed data best?

from ascotracer.

spore_rate is spores_per_gp_per_wet_hour and is set at 0.22 as default but can be changed by the user.
