MEET-eaters: Global Parameter Sources, Ranges, and Defaults

MEET-eaters global parameter data compiled by Christa Blokhuis and published on figshare. The dataset, last updated on May 22, 2026, lists the sources, value ranges, and default values for parameters used in the MEET-eaters model. It is a small 9.5 KB Excel file.

Use Cases

• Reproducing or validating the MEET-eaters model based on documented parameter defaults.
• Sensitivity analysis of model outputs based on the provided parameter value ranges.
• Initializing new model runs based on the documented default parameter values.
• Comparing parameter sourcing and assumptions across different modeling frameworks.

Strengths

• Provides explicit parameter value ranges, which can guide sensitivity testing.
• Lists default values, offering a clear baseline for model initialization.
• File size is 9.5 KB, ensuring quick download and inspection.
• Published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
