Frequency of 10 cm soil temperatures reaching −3.5°C or colder for varied miscanthus residue thicknesses.

Abstract

<p>Fraction of total years during the 1978–2007 time period that simulated annual 10 cm soil temperatures were at or below a −3.5°C threshold (based on a 3-day running mean) for (a) MAIZE+TILL (bare soil), (b) MISCAN+R_{1 cm}, (c) MISCAN+R_{2.5 cm}, and (d) MISCAN+R_{5 cm} simulations.</p
