Parameter a recalculation formula (Subsidence Overlay)

The a parameter is recalculated yearly, to account for a changing climate. The new value for the a parameter is obtained by multiplying the original Parameter a is with a factor. This factor is calculated based on an interpolated average temperature for that year, a soil temperature factor, micro activity and an oxidation factor.

The value of the a parameter is updated each year as follows:

Delta temperature is calculated as:

$\Delta {T}=(T_{final}-T_{start})\cdot {\frac {y_{y}-y_{start}}{y_{final}-y_{start}}}\cdot f_{st}$

Delta micro activity is calculated as:

$\Delta {MA}=Q_{10}^{\Delta {T}/10.0}-1.0$

Delta subsidence is calculated as:

The new parameter a value for year y is calculated as:
