For a given prediction unit, the growth correction factor is calculated as function of the parameters a, b and c, which depend on scenario, geographic locations, tree species and soil moisture code. <br>
For a given prediction unit that has soil moisture class j, the growth correction factor is calculated as function of the parameters a, b and c, which depend on scenario, geographic locations, tree species and soil moisture code. <br>
