Calculate and evaluate the index for the microbial biological activity in the Netherlands

Source: R/bln_prod_pmn.R
bln_b_pmn.Rd

This function assesses the microbial biological activity (of microbes and fungi) via the Potentially Mineralizable N pool, also called PMN (or SoilLife by Eurofins in the past).

Usage

bln_b_pmn(B_LU_BRP, B_SOILTYPE_AGR, A_N_PMN)

Arguments

B_LU_BRP

(numeric) The crop code

B_SOILTYPE_AGR

(character) The agricultural type of soil

A_N_PMN

(numeric) The potentially mineralizable N pool (mg N / kg soil)

Value

the normalized potentially mineralizable Nitrogen pool (mg N / kg), a numeric value, converted to an OSI score.

Examples

bln_b_pmn(B_LU_BRP = 256, B_SOILTYPE_AGR = 'dekzand', A_N_PMN = 125)
#> [1] 0.9999999
bln_b_pmn(c(256,1027), c('dekzand','rivierklei'), c(125,45))
#> [1] 0.9999999 0.7174464
