Document Summary

Accwl (accumulated water loss) turn the negative p-pe values into positive values they are cumulative; so add value from one column onto next disregard those values that are already positive in p-pe row. St (change in storage) for rows where ppe, then ae=pe, otherwise ae=p + st. D (water de cit) only when p < pe, then d = pe - ae. S (water surplus) only when p>pe and the st is at its max, then s = p-pe. Check if your table is balanced at the end: p-s+d = pe. Pe > winter = southern length of growing season no growing season is temperature = 0 otherwise 12 month temperature patterns highest pe values = hottest temperature range.
