Assessing the impact of minimum temperature on crop over Winter season in northwest mountain areas o

Abstract

This report shows the method for assessing minimum temperature effecting on probability of plant growth over the winter in the northwest mountain region of Vietnam by useing Gumbel distribution. This method determines the beginning and ending of critical temperature threholds based on ENSO scenarios. Thence, safe periods are defined for plant in the research region. The results show that: In El Nino year, safe period is longer than in La Nina year.
