The numerical solution of the optimal stomatal conductance model, coupled with the Farquhar model of photosynthesis. The model of Medlyn et al. (2011) is an approximation to this full numeric solution.
This model finds the Ci that maximizes A - lambda*E (Cowan & Farquhar 1977, see also Medlyn et al. 2011). The new function FARAO2 is a much simpler (and probably more stable) implementation, based on Buckley et al. 2014 (P,C&E). Both functions are provided, as FARAO has a few more options than FARAO2, at the moment.
