GDD is calculated for a range specific to a particular plant or suite of plants. Taking corn as an example, it grows with a minimum temperature of 10?C and a maximum temperature of 30?C. So if one day the maximum temperature is 21?C and the minimum temperature is 15?C, the average temperature of that day was 18?C. To determine how many GDD were in that day, simply subtract the base temperature from the average temperature (18?C-10?C) remembering that this all happened on one day. Thus for this example, there were 8 GDD accumulated by the corn during that day. Had the base temperature been 5?C, there would have been 13 GDD accumulated. Annual GDD is the average number of GDD accumulated in a particular area under normal climatic conditions. In this dataset, a base temperature of 5?C was used to compute monthly GDD and those monthly values were then totaled to yield an annual number.","topcomments":"Grids and variable descriptions are downloaded from the Atlas of the Biosphere, a product of the Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment (SAGE), part of the Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies at the University of Wisconsin - Madison (http://www.sage.wisc.edu/atlas/).
