Control file format
You can copy this sample file to create your own control file. Just change the values, then copy and paste as an ordinary text file.
CONTROLFILE = 'E:\exercise\control.dat'
STRUN = 1
ENDRUN = 72
FILEON = 'res.dat' ! Output file
FILEOL = 'model.log' ! Log file
FILEIR = 'E:\exercise\reruns.rer' ! Rerun file
FILEIT = 'E:\exercise\standard.exp' ! Experiment file
FILEI1 = 'E:\exercise\standard.crp' ! Crop file
FILEI2 = 'E:\exercise\standard.sol' ! Soil file
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
* Optionally, Weather Station information can be provided here *
* It is useful for large amount of simulations under same management *
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
*WTRDIR = 'E:\exercise\weather\' !* Folder name of weather files
*CNTR = 'PHIL' !* Weather station name
*ISTN = 2 !* Weather station number
*MULTIY = 'YES' !* Whether multiple year weather file is used,
!* default is ‘NO’ or if the variable do not appear.
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
* Rice monoculture cropping system *
* the default for SOILKILL is "YES", soil will be re-initiated every *
* crop season, and all processes in soil will also stop as growth stop. *
* if "NO", soil will only be initiated at the starting date of simulation *
* and all processes in soil will continue after growth stop. *
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
*SOILKILL = 'NO' !* Whether the soil processes continue after crop maturity
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
* Set output/print options *
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
PRDEL = 1. ! Output time step (day), too much reruns, omit detail outputs!
IPFORM = 5 ! Code for output table format:
COPINF = 'N' ! Switch variable whether to copy the input files to the output
! file ('N' = do not copy,
! 'Y' = copy)
DELTMP = 'N' ! Switch variable what should be done with the temporary output
! file ('N' = do not delete,
! 'Y' = delete)
IFLAG = 1100 ! Indicates where weather error and warnings go
! (1101 means errors and warnings to log file, errors to screen
! see FSE manual)
*PRSEL = 'WAGT','WRR14','WSO'
* 'LAI', 'LAI_OBS' !* It is for the output variables in res.dat
OPSTRING = 'DAE, WRR14, WAGT' !* It is for the output variables in op.dat
*IOBSD = 2008,161
!* List of observation data for which output is required.
!* The list should consist of pairs <year>,<day> combination
