Autor: Chung, U. Gbegbelegbe, Sika Shiferaw, Bekele Robertson, Richard D. Yun JI Tesfaye Fantaye, Kindie Hoogenboom, Gerrit Sonder, Kai

This study uses geo-spatial crop modeling to quantify the biophysical impact of weather extremes. More specifically, the study analyzes the weather extreme which affected maize production in the USA in 2012; it also estimates the effect of a similar weather extreme in 2050, using future climate s...
