Standard deviation for daily maximum air temperature in month
This parameter quantifies the variability in maximum temperature for each month. The standard deviation is calculated as
where σmxmon​is the standard deviation for daily maximum temperature in month mon (ºC), Tmx,mon​ is the daily maximum temperature on day d in month mon (ºC), μmxmon​ is the average daily maximum temperature for the month mon (ºC), and N is the total number of daily maximum temperature records for month mon.
