The actual \(CO_2\) is calculated by a linear function
\[ \begin{equation} CO_2(Year) = Slope \cdot (Year-StartYear) + StartValue \label{co2} \end{equation} \]Transpiration is reduced by a factor that depends linear on the actual CO2 by:
\[ \begin{eqnarray} f(CO_2) & = & Transpiration\_m \cdot CO_2 + Transpiration\_b \label{fco2}\\ ReducedActualTranspiration & = & ActualTranspiration \cdot f(CO_2(year)) \label{redtrans} \end{eqnarray} \]If you want to switch of the Co2 effect (e.g. if you use want to use the same solution with projects to calculate with and without Co2 effect), then you can parameterize the component, so that the factor is always 1:
For clarity reasons however, it is recommended to use different solutions and to remove the simcomponent from the solution, if you don't want to calculate Co2 effect.
