Vegetation End Method "NuskeAlbert"

Description

The method NuskeAlbert provides a very simple method which is inspired by standard climatological procedures but employs a 7 day moving average and a 5 °C threshold (cf. Walther and Linderholm 2006).

Calculations

2 criteria: temperature & short day criterion

Temperature criterion

7 day moving average of daily mean temperatures end if 5 consecutive days under under 5° C start the search at 1st of July / vegetation start

Short day criterion

last day of the vegetation period is 5th of October
