Model tests generally revealed a high level of agreement between simulations and experimental measurements. Given the variety of the simulated treatments and the many assumptions that a model like OliveCan must take, we found the results satisfactory. Notwithstanding that, there were situations in which model estimates departed from observations. For example, some discrepancies were found for some of the simulations of Y oil, ET (Table 1) and E p (Figure 3), but, considering that the general trends and differences between treatments were captured by the model, we believe that the results are highly acceptable. Some of the divergences between measured and simulated Y oil might be attributed to the fact that the approach followed by OliveCan to simulate alternate bearing is limited, as far as the physiological bases of alternate bearing are not completely understood yet ( Connor, 2005; Dag et al., 2010). However, biennial comparisons (Table 2) only improved slightly the results. Apart from that, the remarkable lag between the simulated and measured diurnal courses of E p (Figure 4) was to be expected: measurements were performed in the trunk with sap flow sensors and OliveCan does not simulate the buffering effect of the water stored in aboveground organs ( Cermák et al., 2007). Also, the model assumes that stomatal conductance responds instantaneously to changes in environmental conditions, but the slow dynamics of stomatal opening and closing can cause lags in diurnal transpiration ( Vialet-Chabrand et al., 2013).

Agron. 30, 258–265. doi: 10.1016/j.eja.2008.12.004Variables related to canopy characteristics such as leaf area index ( LAI) or GC are updated from the estimates of biomass of leaves assuming that the crowns present an spheroidal shape with constant leaf area density ( LAD) and ratio of vertical to horizontal canopy radiuses ( R zx). Similarly, the biomass of fine roots in each soil compartment is used to compute root length density ( L v) by adopting a constant specific root length ( SRL). Senescence of leaves and fine roots are simulated using a similar approach to that in the model by Morales et al. (2016). OliveCan takes also into account the conversion of shoots into branches when they exceed 3 years-old. Besides that, the model considers some of the effects of frost events and heat stress. Frost damage is simulated by assuming that a fraction of the standing leaves is defoliated when minimum air temperature falls below a certain temperature threshold. A similar approach is used for simulating the effect of extremely high temperatures during flowering on fruit set: when maximum air temperature exceeds a given threshold, a reduction in the final FN is triggered.

All authors played a significant role in the conception and development of the model. FV led out the coding, with contributions from ÁL-B, AM, OG-T, and LT. ÁL-B, LT, and FV gathered the datasets for testing the model. ÁL-B led out the writing with significant contributions from all co-authors.

For the computation of FN in the first season, an estimate of dry yield for the year preceding the start of the simulation is also needed. To initialize the state variables related to phenology, simulations must start at the beginning of a year and the temperature records of the preceding 3 months must be provided. Some simulation settings such as the number of years to simulate and N must also be provided. Finally, the user is to indicate the management operations to be implemented and provide values to their parameters. Model ParameterizationFurther research regarding genetic variability in model parameters is also desirable. With the exception of those related to the simulation of flowering date ( De Melo-Abreu et al., 2004) and frost damage ( Barranco et al., 2005), all parameters have been taken from past experiments carried out either with only one cultivar each (‘Arbequina’ being the most frequent) or averaging the results obtained for a few of them. Although the scarce literature does not allow us to disentangle how many of these crop parameters are cultivar-specific, it is clear that exploring their genetic variability might be important for enhancing model reliability. Moreover, the quantification of such cultivar variability may be used for evaluating its impact on tree physiology and productivity under different management, weather or orchard characteristics using OliveCan, which may be useful for breeding purposes. P.S. Another olive favorite are these Olive Puffs (I think they’re delicious year-round, but especially at Halloween). Want to change it up? Swap out blue cheese for a creamy goat cheese or opt for a milder blue cheese and go with gorgonzola cheese. de Ciencias e Engenharia de Biossistemas, Instituto Superior de Agronomia, Universidade de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal Two phenological stages are considered for the vegetative organs: (i) a dormant stage characterized by an absence of growth that is induced by chilling accumulation during autumn and (ii) a phase of active growth that starts in late winter, by the time average temperature is above a threshold. In relation to the reproductive growth, the date of flowering is determined with the two-phase model by De Melo-Abreu et al. (2004). Fruit growth is assumed to start after a given amount of thermal time is accumulated from the date of flowering and ceases when either maturity or the harvest date is reached.
