Updates for SOILWAT2 (v6.7.0): fix its "vegetation establishment"
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
- SOILWAT2's "vegetation establishment" module works again (also as part of STEPWAT2); see DrylandEcology/SOILWAT2#336
- note: these are calculations are made on simulated SOILWAT2's conditions and do not inform simulations (no feedback)

- input files with species establishment parameters "<species>.estab" now organized in a subfolder within SOILWAT2's inputs
- new input parameter "vegetation type" that associates a species with one of SOILWAT2's simulated vegetation types

- notes
* SOILWAT2's "establishment" is calculated under the following conditions: (i) there are input files with species establishment parameters; (ii) at least one of those files is correctly listed in `"estab.in"` and the input flag in `"estab.in"` is on
* these establishment results are included in the output files only if `"ESTABL"` is turned on in `"outsetup.in"`
* default values: calculations are turned off and output is turned off
