Temperature

temperature loads air-temperature forcing and climate context.

Accepted sources

• custom

• sim2

[[data.temperature.sources]]
source = "sim2"
extent = "watershed"

Check period coverage, units, and spatial support before using temperature in preprocessing or reporting.

Visual check

Fig. 172 Temperature is usually context or preprocessing input. The useful first diagnostic is therefore a period and seasonal-cycle check, not a solver result.

Temperature Source: custom

Use source = "custom" for local temperature fields or station series.

[[data.temperature.sources]]
source = "custom"
path = "data/temperature/temperature.nc"
source_unit = "degC"

Check units, time zone assumptions for point data, period coverage, and spatial alignment.

Temperature Source: sim2

Use source = "sim2" to retrieve SIM2 temperature fields.

[[data.temperature.sources]]
source = "sim2"
extent = "watershed"

Inspect the climatic summary to verify the requested time window and aggregate temperature behavior.

Provider replay

Fig. 173 The temperature replay is a period and seasonal-cycle check. It documents the provider payload before temperature is reused as context or preprocessing input.
