Energy available for plant growth over a year. One Growing Degree Day is one day in which daily mean temperature is above the threshold by 1°C. For example if the average temperature for a specific day is 6°C, this would contribute 0.5 Growing Degree Days to the annual sum.This data-set contains 3 fields for each fixed period (1981-2000, 2001-2020) and Global Warming Level (1.5°C, 2°C, 2.5°C, 3°C, 3.5°C, 4°C) combination: the median, 2nd lowest and 2nd highest among the 12 ensemble members. The fields are named accordingly; e.g. the 2nd lowest at 2.5°C is GDD_25_lowerTo understand the data, refer to the LACS Scientific Detail.To understand how to explore the data, see the User Guides available on the Climate Data Portal.
