Growing Season Air-Soil Temperature Relationships At Lincoln, Nebraska, Ralph E. Neild

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

This study concerns the use of weekly average air temperature for predicting weekly average soil temperature under different conditions of surface cover during different times of year. Probabilities of weekly average air temperature for Lincoln as well as other Nebraska locations are available. These probabilities and the soil temperature prediction equations may be used in determining expected soil temperatures.
