Biofix Date¹:

End Date:

Lower Temperature Threshold:

Upper Temperature Threshold²:

Biofix dates are usually based on specific biological events such as planting dates, first trap catch, or first occurrence of a pest. Models with biofix dates other than Jan 1 are probably less reliable and the biofix may need to be adjusted to match an observed event such as the appearance of egg masses.
