+D24_2014$meta
+# No moisture normalisation in the first dataset, so we use f_na = 1 to get
+# Temperature only normalisation as in the EU evaluation
+f_time_norm_focus(D24_2014, f_na = 1)
+# Moisture normalisation for the other four soils is one, as soil moisture
+# is higher than the approximate field capacity derived from the USDA soil
+# type
