Processing Procedures - MS028:

Description: Temperature maps (mean,max,min) for each month and annual were developed by Lynn Rosentrater for her master's thesis. Data came from the Andrews thermograph network. Lynn developed Surfer maps from which the ArcInfo Grids were created. See Lynn's thesis for more information. (HJ Andrews pub number 2383)

Instrumentation: Note that the following months do NOT have data due to problems with the original surfer files: Mean temperature: mar, dec Max temperature: june, sept, oct Min temperature: feb, may
