Abstract
The Full Carbon Accounting Model (FullCAM) is used by the Australian Government for international reporting of greenhouse gas emissions and to predict carbon stock changes for carbon abatement projects. It is also used by landowners, companies and researchers, and is therefore regularly applied at local to continental scales. FullCAM is a stand level model with daily, monthly or annual temporal resolutions, depending on the users' preference. FullCAM has been developed over the past 20 years, however, no studies have reviewed and described the current structure, parameters, calibration, and uses of FullCAM, which was the objective of this study. We also discuss the potential for further developments that could improve FullCAM's ability to model responses to disturbances and climate, while also increasing its local accuracy.
