Cooling degree days. CDD is calculated as the number of degrees a mean daily temperature is above a value (specified as the Temperature element), for each day. For example, if the mean temperature in a region rises to 77 degrees for three days during a year, the rest of the time staying below 75, and the Temperature element is set at 75, then CDD = 6. |
