This general warming trend manifests itself in Saskatchewan in the following ways. Saskatchewan’s average winter minimum temperature has increased to -16 degrees Celsius today from -22 degrees Celsius in 1965, which is a net increase of 6 degrees Celsius. In 2020, the province's average frost-free growing season was 140 days – an increase of 36 days from a 106-day average recorded in the mid-1960s. 1, record 1, English, - average%20frost%2Dfree%20growing%20season

Le poivron et la tomate sont des plantes de climat chaud sensibles au gel. Pour les abris froids, il est essentiel d’avoir une idée des dates représentant des risques de gel printanier et automnal par localité. Ainsi, il sera possible d’estimer la durée de la saison de croissance sans gel afin d’évaluer lequel, d’une serre chauffée ou d’un abri froid, est davantage approprié au site. Il faudra prendre en considération le fait qu’un abri non chauffé offre une protection maximale d’environ 1 °C contre les gelées nocturnes. 1, record 1, French, - dur%C3%A9e%20de%20la%20saison%20de%20croissance%20sans%20gel

Les eaux intermédiaires. Il s’agit sans doute de la strate [...] la plus délicate à définir[, ] car ne possédant aucun caractère constant et généralisable : située approximativement entre 300-500 m et 1 000-1 200 m, ni ses salinités-à mi-chemin entre les valeurs des couches superficielles et des couches profondes-ni ses températures-grandement dépendantes de la latitude-ne sont homogènes. Elles forment souvent contraste du point de vue thermique avec les eaux superficielles qui les surmontent, car elles sont soit plus chaudes soit plus froides que ces dernières suivant la latitude, et la saison. Cette situation «moyenne» est le reflet de la double caractéristique de température et de salinité [des eaux intermédiaires], ce qui les place «entre deux eaux», selon leur densité. 3, record 4, French, - eau%20interm%C3%A9diaire

Daily Severity Rating - A numerical measure, based on the Fire Weather Index (FWI), specifically designed for averaging, either for any desired period of time (e.g. week, month, year) at a single fire weather station or spatially over a number of stations. The FWI itself, on the other hand, is not considered suitable for averaging, and should be used as its single daily value only. The DSR averaged over a whole fire season is termed the Seasonal Severity Rating (SSR) which can be used as an objective measure for comparing fire weather severity from one season to the next, or the fire climate of one region with another. 2, record 11, English, - seasonal%20severity%20rating

Irrigation is a term used to describe the process of watering farmland by diverting water from natural sources to designated areas. The diversion of water is developed and controlled within what is called an irrigation district. An irrigation district is responsible for maintaining a water supply to farmers in a certain area. This is accomplished by using a water source such as a river and diverting it through a system of dams, reservoirs, and canals that eventually deliver water right to the farmers' fields. 2, record 15, English, - irrigation%20season

La durée d’une saison d’irrigation est estimée à 90 jours du 15 juin au 15 septembre. Au cours de cette période, et pour une culture de maïs, la ressource est en moyenne sollicitée pendant 62 jours. [...] une réglementation «non révisable» a été mise en place [...] Intéressant les ressources souterraines, cette réglementation se situe entre une gestion volumétrique pouvant être proposée préventivement et une gestion de la pénurie en fonction des aléas climatiques et donc curative. Organisée pour optimiser les apports d’eau, notamment en période de stress du maïs, cette réglementation a pour but de limiter les apports au début de la campagne, et de mieux répartir au cours de la saison l'eau ainsi épargnée. 2, record 15, French, - campagne%20d%26rsquo%3Birrigation

Dans les périmètres où la distribution est faite au tour d’eau, la campagne d’irrigation a un caractère plus réglementaire.

Les précipitations, faibles en moyenne, tombent principalement sous forme de neige. Le blizzard qui y règne fréquemment est dû à un vent violent qui soulève et entraîne la neige poudreuse.
