The frost days index is defined as the number of days in a year with a daily minimum temperature below 0°C. Variations of this index limit the counting of frost occurrences to particular seasons (e.g., the growing season or the spring months). A closely related index is ‘ice days’, which uses daily maximum instead of minimum temperature.
