title: 'rCTOOL: Soil Organic Carbon Turnover Modelling with ''C-TOOL'''
version: 3.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.rCTOOL
abstract: Provides an 'R' interface to the 'C-TOOL' soil carbon turnover model for
  simulating soil organic carbon dynamics in agricultural systems. The package supports
  the definition of carbon inputs, management schedules, soil parameters, and temperature
  forcing, and includes tools for scenario analysis and calibration of selected model
  parameters against observed soil organic carbon stocks. The 'C-TOOL' model and related
  modelling framework are described by Petersen et al. (2002) <https://doi.org/10.1016/S0304-3800(02)00034-0>,
