GMD-2021-98: Spatially Distributed AquaCrop Model Code and Data

Shannon de Roos from KU Leuven provides the source code and datasets used to run and evaluate a spatially distributed version of the AquaCrop crop model. The data and code are associated with a preprint manuscript currently under review. The authors request that the data not be used before the manuscript's official publication.

Use Cases

• Replicating the spatially distributed AquaCrop model based on the provided source code.
• Evaluating crop yield simulations based on the distributed model's outputs.
• Conducting geospatial agricultural analysis based on the model's spatial distribution capabilities.

Strengths

• Data is directly linked to a preprint manuscript with a DOI (10.5194/gmd-2021-98).
• Source code is included, enabling full reproducibility of the model evaluation.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The authors request the data not be used before official publication of the manuscript, imposing a temporary restriction.
