The start time and the end time of the accumulation process must be set, eg. start="2000-03-01" end="2011-01-01". In addition, a cycle, eg. cycle="8 months", can be specified, that defines after which interval of time the accumulation process restarts. The offset option specifies the time that should be skipped between two cycles, eg. offset="4 months".
The lower and upper limits of the accumulation process can be set, either by using space time raster datasets or by using fixed values for all raster cells and time steps. The raster maps that specify the lower and upper limits of the actual granule will be detected using the following temporal relations: equals, during, overlaps, overlapped and contains. First, all maps with time stamps equal to the current granule will be detected, the first lower map and the first upper map found will be used as limit definitions. If no equal maps are found, then maps with a temporal during relation are detected, then maps that temporally overlap the actual granules, until maps that have a temporal contain relation are detected. If no maps are found or lower/upper STRDS are not defined, then the limits option is used, eg. limits=10,30.
The upper limit is only used in the Biologically Effective Degree Days calculation.
The options shift, scale and method are passed to r.series.accumulate. Please refer to the manual page of r.series.accumulate for detailed option description.
The output is a new space time raster dataset with the provided start time, end time and granularity containing the accumulated raster maps. The base name of the generated maps must always be set. The output space time raster dataset can then be analyzed using t.rast.accdetect to detect specific accumulation patterns.
