sNUE {NUETON} | R Documentation |
Calculate NUE of a System (sNUE)
Description
The fraction of system N outputs that are captured as N yield rather than lost to the environment Calculate sNUE using the formula: sNUE = (YieldN / (YieldN + Nloss))
Usage
sNUE(YieldN, Nloss)
Arguments
YieldN |
Observed crop yield vector that is attributed to the nitrogen inputs in the system |
Nloss |
The value of nitrogen that is lost from the system and not utilized by the crops. |
Value
The calculated sNUE value.
