Comparaison des températures observées sous couvert forestier et en espace ouverts dans le Jura

subject

description

A two networks are used to evaluate the differences between temperature in forest and open space. Each of the fourteen stations managed by Météo France are matched with a station located in the nearest forest. Minimum and maximum daily temperature recorded from May 1st, 2011 to October 31st, 2013 measure the differences between these pairs of stations. Under forest cover, minimum temperature is softer and fresher than in open spaces maximum. Altitude is the variable that most strongly structures the spatial variation of temperature of the two environments.
