This is a map of temporal variability in accumulated growing potential (growing degree days, GDD) for the Upper Gunnison domain, derived from daily maximum temperature maps interpolated from weather station and microclimate sensor data. The original daily maps are also available. Temperature estimates represent conditions approximately 2m above the ground surface. Growing degree-days were accumulated from day-of-year 60 to day-of-year 196 (March 1st to July 15th in a non-leap year). To compute GDD, daily maximum temperatures above 5 degrees Celcius (minimal growth conditions for most plants) were summed across all focal days. This map represents the standard deviation of annual values computed from 2002 to 2021. Annual estimates are also available.
