Parameter Sensitivity Analysis and Irrigation Regime Optimization for Jujube Trees in Arid Regions Using the WOFOST Model by Shihao Sun, Yingjie Ma, Pengrui Ai, Ming Hong, Zhenghu Ma

“…In this study, parameter sensitivity analyses were conducted to determine that photosynthetic capacity maximization (A_max), the potassium nutrition index (K_status), the water stress factor (SWF), the water–potassium photosynthetic coefficient of synergy (α), and potassium partitioning weight coefficients (β_i) were the important parameters affecting the simulated growth process of the crop. Path analysis using segmented structural equations also showed that water stress factor (SWF) and potassium nutrition index (K_status) indirectly controlled yield by significantly affecting photosynthesis (path coefficients: 0.72 and 0.75, respectively). …”
