Computer simulation of root nutrient uptake has become a powerful tool in the analysis of plant and soil characteristics. One of the shortcomings of earlier numerical models is the lack of a proper accounting for age-dependent root parameters. An algorithm is presented that not only allows for time- and/or space-varying root growth rates, convective moisture uptake, root density, initial distribution of nutrient, effective diffusion coefficients, and buffer power; but also accounts for time-varying root efflux, root absorption power and maximum nutrient influxive rate. Several elementary numerical examples of NH4+, NO3-, P and K uptake for roots with temporally varying characteristics are presented.
