Abstract

In this poster, I will describe an overview of 2 things: (1) The NGEE-Tropics project, including its overview, goals, modeling and measurement activities; and (2) an overview of the Functionally Assembled Terrestrial Ecosystem Simulator (FATES), which is a demographic vegetation model for the ACME ESM. FATES is both a core focus of model development activities in NGEE-Tropics, as well as an integrating tool in the design and scientific organization of the NGEE-Tropics project, and I will highlight some basic theoretical underpinnings and some initial applications of the model.
