1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

High-resolution microclimatic temperature grids are needed for ecosystem modelling, biodiversity conservation, and forest management. However, existing climatic grids are coarse and do not capture microclimatic temperatures beneath tree canopies or near the ground. To address this, we established a dense network of microclimatic loggers continuously measuring air, near-ground, and soil temperatures. We combined one year of these in situ temperature measurements with high-resolution LiDAR-derived land surface topography and forest structure using boosted spatial generalized additive models to develop 5-m resolution microclimatic grids for the largest forest wilderness area in Central Europe, the Bohemian Forest Ecosystem (BFE). The resulting grids provide reasonable estimates of local annual maximum, mean, and minimum temperatures and growing degree days at different heights with spatially cross-validated RMSE values ranging from 0.41 °C for annual mean soil temperature to 2.34 °C for maximum near-ground temperature. Compared to SoilTemp (soil temperature), ForestTemp (near-ground temperature), and downscaled ERA5-Land (air temperature), the BFE microclimatic grids provide the most accurate local temperature estimates and capture substantially more spatial microclimatic variability.
