Mean Manure and Ambient Air Temperatures Across Seven Storage Periods

Seven storage periods (I-VII) of temperature measurements for manure at various depths and ambient air, collected by Rana A. Genedy and last updated in May 2026. The dataset includes mean temperatures with standard error and statistical significance groupings based on a Tukey HSD test (p < 0.05). It is a 9.5 KB Excel file available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Modeling heat generation and decomposition in manure storage based on depth and period data.
• Comparing ambient air influence on stored manure temperatures across different time intervals.
• Analyzing statistical significance of temperature differences between storage periods and depth locations.

Strengths

• Includes statistical significance annotations (Tukey HSD, p < 0.05) for temperature comparisons.
• Covers seven distinct storage periods (I-VII) for temporal analysis.
• Measures both manure temperatures at various depths and ambient air temperatures for environmental context.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
