In this course, students use their knowledge about the physiology and ecology of
plants to build and apply process-based plant ecophysiology models for addressing
questions like “how will plants respond to rising CO2 and temperature?” and “How
much carbon does a tree fix in their lifetime?” The primary focus is on explanatory
models that explain how plants work. Basic understanding and curiosity in plant
physiology and interest in scientific computing are recommended. Most coding is
done in Julia language using Cropbox modeling framework developed at UW
(https://github.com/cropbox). Fluency in programming is not required. See lab
materials at: https://github.com/uwkimlab/plant_modeling
