I admire the scope of this page. Great work. I would question the section in the table which links photosynthesis representation to references (Farquhar or Collatz). My understanding of the Collats formulations are essentially an extension of Farquhar. So all the models listed are based on Farquahar. Isn't the difference between Collatz 1991 and 1992 just the application to C3 ('91) or C4 ('92) plants. Does this imply that IBIS, LPJ, SDGVM (as the page implies) not adopt Collatz for C3 plants, but they do for C4? 151.170.240.10 (talk) 17:12, 12 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
