  7. 0707 / WATCH EVENTUnderstand frost-event monitoring

    Keep forecasts, layered observations, alerts, authorization, equipment state and crop evidence distinct.

  8. 0808 / REHEARSEReview frost readiness

    Test exposure mapping, sensor and alert chains, human authority, safety, logging and post-event assessment before the event.

  9. 0909 / MODELUnderstand degree-day modeling

    Preserve the biological model, weather input, thresholds, start event, method and calculation version.

  10. 1010 / VERIFYAudit the model against the field

    Reconstruct one run, compare it with representative biological observations and expose disagreement before a decision.
