• PCU (Utah modified by Infruitec)
• GDH_A (Growing Degree Hours by Anderson et al., 1986)
• GDH_A (Growing Degree Hours by Richardon, 1974)
• North Carolina (Shaltout e Unrath, 1983)
• Landsberg Model, Q10 Model (Bidabe)
• Model by Jones et al. (2013)
• Low-Chill Model (Gilreath and Buchanan, 1981)
• Model for Cherry "Sweetheart" (Guak and Nielsen, 2013)
• Model for apple "Gala" (Guak and Nielsen, 2013)
• Dynamic Model (Fichmann, 1987) adapted of the "chillR" package
• Unified Model of Chuine (Chuine, I. et al. 2016)
