fW.Gompertz

Calculates the effects of water content on decomposition rates.

Functions for modeling Soil Organic Matter decomposition
in terrestrial ecosystems with linear and nonlinear systems of differential equations.
The package implements
models according to the compartmental system representation described in
Sierra and others (2012) <doi:10.5194/gmd-5-1045-2012> and Sierra and others (2014)
<doi:10.5194/gmd-7-1919-2014>.
