[RegCNET] tmax and tmin

[Lara Kueppers]

Hi-
Awhile back I asked how Tmin and Tmax in the SRF output file were 
calculated. Here is Nellie's recent reply, in case anyone else is 
interested.:

"Hi Lara,

I just verified this with Bi...Tmin and Tmax are calculated from the 
BATS output, so if you have the model output to the SRF file every 3 
hours, then that is what the min and max are calculated from.  Bi thinks 
this is a better way to do it since min and max temp observations are 
generally taken from 3 or 6 hourly obs.  You can increase the frequency 
of the srf output variables (in the regcm.in file) to see how much of 
difference it would make in the diurnal temp range. "
