SIPNET (Simplified Photosynthesis and Evapotranspiration Model) is an ecosystem model designed to efficiently simulate carbon and water dynamics. Originally developed for assimilation of eddy covariance flux data in forest ecosystems, current development is focused on representing carbon balance and GHG fluxes and agricultural management practices.
[What's required?]
[Python may be required in the future, depending on what happens with formatting pre-commit hooks; we'll see]

[Running the program - example]
[Description of sipnet.in and different modes, some variation of the below paragraph]
The program used for forward runs of the model. Its operation is controlled by the file 'sipnet.in'. SIPNET can run in three different modes: 'standard', for a standard forward run; 'senstest', for performing a sensitivity test on a single parameter; and 'montecarlo', for running the model forward using an ensemble of parameter sets. See 'sipnet.in' for further configuration options for each of these types of runs.
