Yearly variation of monthly values of climatic factors during the period 1950–2000. a, b Locality A (Taton-Rio Grande). c, d Locality B (Ipizca). Left column graphs (a, c) correspond to yearly variation of temperatures (data in °C): red squares and line = mean maximum temperature (MMT); green triangles and line = mean environmental temperature (MET); blue diamonds and line = mean minimum temperature (MmT). Right column graphs (b, d) correspond to yearly variation of precipitation and potential evapotranspiration (data in mm/day) to show differences between the rainy and dry periods: blue line = precipitation; red line = potential evapotranspiration (PET); pink line = 0.45 × PET; dark blue areas = humid period (vegetation growing season - no one appears); green areas = moist period (vegetation growing season); yellow areas = dry period
