Testing and ValidationWIMOVAC has been extensively tested and validated against experimental data for both C3 and C4 species at the level of leaf and canopy photosynthesis (Jones, M.B., 1987,1988; Jones, M.B. and Muthuri, F.M., 1984,1985). Comparisons of measured and modelled rates of photosynthesis and stomatal conductance have demonstrated the robustness and predictive value of the WIMOVAC modelling system Comparisons of measured and modelled rates of photosynthesis and stomatal conductance have demonstrated the robustness and predictive value of the WIMOVAC modelling system References HUMPHRIES, S.W. & LONG, S.P.
