  ! Error Tolerances

  ! Allowable error in carbon allocations, should be applied to estimates
  ! of carbon conservation in units of kgC/plant.  This gives an effective
  ! error tolerance of 1 microgram.

  ! Rounding errors seem to hover around 1e-15 for the gnu compiler
  ! when not applying compiler directives for safe math.  An example
  ! of this is taking a vector of numbers, dividing through by their sum,
  ! multiplying each by their original sum, and then seeing if their addition
  ! matches the original sum.  Other simple examples of rounding errors
  ! are simply changing the orders:  a*b*c .ne. a*c*b
  ! This value here is used as an error expectation comparison 
  ! for multiplication/division procedures, also allowing for 3 orders
  ! of magnitude of buffer error (ie instead of 1e-15)

  ! between reals with zero, as the chances are their
