Probability density functions (PDFs) of cork temperature. The PDFs are shown with respect to t = 5000 s for t = 4940 s (left panel) and t = 5060 s (right panel; see Sect. 4.2). The distribution of corks at t = 5000 s is shown by a turquoise line in each panel. The average cork temperature at each timestep is indicated by the red line. The blue lines show the minimum and maximum temperature of all corks for the respective height.
