Description

This equation scales the layer-specific nitrogen supply to ensure consistency with total crop nitrogen demand. When mass flow supply exceeds demand, uptake is reduced proportionally across layers; when supply is insufficient, the formulation allows increased uptake, representing diffusion-driven compensation. An upper constraint ensures that uptake from a layer cannot exceed the available nitrate in that layer. The equation produces the actual nitrogen uptake used by the crop model.

Formula(s) and Quantities

$U N a_{l, i} = U N_{l, i} \frac{U N D_{i}}{U N S_{i}}$
$U N a$ represents adjusted nitrogen supply rate in soil layer
$U N S$ represents nitrogen supply rate in soil layer
$U N D$ represents plant nitrogen demand rate
$i$ represents day index
$l$ represents soil layer index
$U N$ represents nitrogen supply rate in soil layer
