This file is referenced from each ecoregion (via ClimateFileName) when ClimateConfigFile is not in use. The first line is a header; subsequent lines are monthly observations in chronological order. Ozone (O3) is optional.

Arguments

df

data.frame with columns Year, Month, TMax, TMin, PAR, Prec, CO2, and optionally O3. Year may be a 4-digit integer or a range string of the form "1700-1979" (see §6.3.1).

path
