I am working on the impact of climate change on chilling requirements of low chill fruit. Working out these units need the temperature data in the hourly format. Is there any simple procedure to get it done?
There are the empirical models to generate a wave for the hourly data

You can download 6 hour air temperature data from this site.
Dear Som Pal Singh,
there is alos the work of Parton & Logan, which is applied in DSSAT-models to generate 24 hourly T values from daily Tmin and Tmax data.

I applied it in a spread sheet model, which I may supply to you, if required.
Best, Til
