Implements the Simulating Optimal FUNctioning framework for site-scale simulations of ecosystem processes, including model calibration. It contains 'Fortran 90' modules for the P-model (Stocker et al. (2020) doi:10.5194/gmd-13-1545-2020), SPLASH (Davis et al. (2017) doi:10.5194/gmd-10-689-2017) and BiomeE (Weng et al. (2015) doi:10.5194/bg-12-2655-2015).
