Effects of elevated CO2 and drought on wheat: testing crop simulation models for different experimental and climatic conditions

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
In this article, the effects of increasing carbon dioxide concentration [CO2] on wheat vary depending on water supply and climatic conditions, which are difficult to estimate and are often used to predict the impact of global atmospheric changes on food production.

What have we learned from 15 years of free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE)? A meta-analytic review of the responses of photosynthesis, canopy properties and plant production to rising CO2.

TL;DR: The results from this review may provide the most plausible estimates of how plants in their native environments and field-grown crops will respond to rising atmospheric [CO(2)]; but even with FACE there are limitations, which are discussed.

Rising Temperatures Reduce Global Wheat Production

Senthold Asseng, +59 more
TL;DR: The authors systematically tested 30 different wheat crop models of the Agricultural Model Intercomparison and Improvement Project against field experiments in which growing season mean temperatures ranged from 15 degrees C to 32 degrees C, including experiments with artificial heating.

Future scenarios of European agricultural land use: I. Estimating changes in crop productivity

TL;DR: In this article, a simple static approach was developed to estimate future changes in the productivity of food crops in Europe (EU15 member countries, Norway and Switzerland) as part of a larger approach of land use change assessment for four scenarios of the IPCC Special Report on Emission Scenarios (SRES) representing alternative future developments of the world that may be global or regional, economic or environmental.

Future scenarios of European agricultural land use: II. Projecting changes in cropland and grassland

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the development of quantitative, spatially explicit and alternative scenarios of future agricultural land use in Europe (the 15 European Union member states, Norway and Switzerland).

A Biochemical Model of Photosynthetic CO 2 Assimilation in Leaves of C 3 Species

TL;DR: Various aspects of the biochemistry of photosynthetic carbon assimilation in C3 plants are integrated into a form compatible with studies of gas exchange in leaves.

Evaporation and environment.

TL;DR: Progress towards a reconciliation of parallel concepts in meteorology and physiology is described, which stresses the importance of physiological restraint on the rate of transpiration from an irrigated field surrounded by dry land.

Potential impact of climate change on world food supply

TL;DR: A global assessment of the potential impact of climate change on world food supply suggests that doubling of the atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration will lead to only a small decrease in global crop production.

A critical appraisal of a combined stomatal-photosynthesis model for C3 plants

TL;DR: Mijhoff et al. as discussed by the authors used gas exchange measurements on Eucalyptus grandis leaves and data extracted from the literature to test a semi-empirical model of stomatal conductance for CO 2, g sc = g 0 + a 1 /[(c s −Γ)(1 + D s /D 0 )], where A is the assimilation rate; D s and c s are the humidity deficit and the CO 2 concentration at the leaf surface, respectively; g 0 is the conductance as A → 0 when leaf irradiance → 0
