Maximiano and others interested,
To answer properly your question you should consider that plants in your field sense soil temperature first and later canopy temperature, and based on those temperatures differentiate and expand leaves. What your model "senses" is air temperature input in your weather file. What population densities and N doses are we talking about?
In the field, very high population densities may result in early canopy closure, higher water uptake, and some other changes that may affect the actual soil and/or canopy temperatures plant senses in different population densities. On the other hand, these details are invisible to the model. The only information available to the model are daily values of Tmax, Tmin, and SRAD, and based on that it will calculate thermal time using simulated soil Temp (when leaf number is less than or equal to 10) or air temperature.
Best regards,
Jon

I'm calibrating DSSAT with the cultivation of maize under nine treatments
three densities and three fertilizer levels
it is reasonable that with increasing density decreases PHINT?
