Drivers of ORCHIDEE model
ORCHIDEE needs several forcing data in order to run correctly. The number of requested data is dependant of the configuration used.
In On-Line mode, the data needed are related to soil texture and color. If the vegetation is prescribed, ORCHIDEE needs in addition a vegetation information defining the fraction of each PFT per gridcell. Vegetation types gathered in these vegetation maps can be either PFT or Holson categories.
In Off-Line mode, ORCHIDEE is forced by weather data based on observations or climate model reanalysis.
Last, depending of the options activated within a run of ORCHIDEE, additional maps might be used for irrigation, slope for routing scheme, ...
Weather data
These forcing fiels are stored into IGCM/BC/OOL/OL2 directory on CCRT, IDRIS at least.
