Subject: Re: TEMPERATURE TO GDD
Dear Misael,
numerous variants on the subject of temperature sums based on linear
functions are published.
MCMASTER & WILHELM (1997) point at the need for clear definitions
regarding the concept of growing degree-days.
Different methods of calculating growing degree-days implemented in crop
models can easily
cause errors when relying on parameters from literature.
Maybe you would like to look at this article:
MCMASTER, G.S. & W.W. WILHELM (1997): Growing degree-days: one equation,
two interpretations. Agricultural and Forest Meteorology 87, 291-300.
Greetings from Germany,
Victoria
