Heating and Cooling Degree-Days Climate Change Projections for Portugal

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
Climate change is expected to influence cooling and heating energy demand of residential buildings and affect overall thermal comfort. Towards this end, the heating (HDD) and cooling (CDD) degree-days along with HDD + CDD were computed from an ensemble ...

Inaccuracy of accumulated degree day models for estimating terrestrial post-mortem intervals in Cape Town, South Africa.

open access: yesForensic Science International, 2019
In forensic death investigations, estimating the postmortem interval (PMI) is critical. An accurate PMI estimate increases the speed and accuracy of identifying the remains by narrowing the time frame in which the death occurred, thus reducing the pool ...

A dataset of spatial distribution of degree-day factors for glaciers in High Mountain Asia

open access: yesChina Scientific Data, 2019
: The degree-day model, a widely used approach for ice and snow melt computation, rests upon a relationship between snow or ice melt and air temperature that is usually expressed in the form of positive temperature.

Revisiting a Simple Degree-Day Model for Integrating Satellite Data: Implementation of Swe-Sca Hystereses

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2018
Conceptual degree-day snow models are often calibrated using runoff observations. This makes the snow models dependent on the rainfall-runoff model they are coupled with.
