Full name of the model	FABM-PCLake
Model components	Chemistry and Biology
Supported platforms	Windows, Mac, Linux
Programming Language
Still maintained	Yes, by: Aarhus University
Most recent version	FABM-PCLake gitlab
Model structure
Needs compilation (Linux, MacOSX), Executables are available (for Windows)
Fixed grid (Eulerian)
Model description
Model objective	Simulated complicated ecosystem model under multiple water domains(0D, 1D, 2D and 3D)
Specific application	Not available yet, but several manuscript on the way
Background knowledge needed to run model	Understanding of lake hydrodynamics and ecosystem
Basic procedures	1. Choose a hydrodynamic model to run, e.g GOTM 2. calibrate temperature and light in hydrodyanmic model 3. turned on gotm_fabm=true, and then attach fabm-pclake.yaml 4. sensitivity analysis 5. calibration
FABM-PCLake describes interactions between multiple trophic levels, including piscivorous, zooplanktivorous and benthivorous fish, zooplankton, zoobenthos, three groups of phytoplankton and rooted macrophytes. The model also accounts for oxygen dynamics and nutrient cycling for nitrogen, phosphorus and silicon, both within the pelagic and benthic domains.
