Description:
Abstract:
Temperature (deg C) maps (mean,max,min) for each month and annual (time period 1981-1990) were developed by Lynn Rosentrater for her master's thesis. Data came from the Andrews thermograph network.
Purpose:
To help describe and analyze the natural variability of monthly and seasonal temperature regimes with the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest.
