Impact of Climate Change on Crop Yield: A Case Study of Rainfed Corn in Central Illinois
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper assesses the effect of climate change on crop yield from a soil water balance perspective. The uncertainties of regional-scale climate models, local-scale climate variability, emissions scenarios, and crop growth ...
Influence of Internal Variability and Global Warming on Multidecadal Changes in Regional Drought Severity over the Continental United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractMeteorological droughts in the continental United States (CONUS) are known to oscillate at the multidecadal time scale in response to the sea surface temperatures (SST) variability over the Pacific Ocean and the ...
Hierarchical Decision-Modeling Framework to Meet Environmental Objectives in Biofuel Development
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Biofuel development to comply with the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) would alter conventional crop patterns in agricultural watersheds. As a result, the hydrologic response of the watersheds will exhibit different and often ...
Modeling Users’ Trust in Drought Forecasts

Communicating the Impacts of Projected Climate Change on Heavy Rainfall Using a Weighted Ensemble Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Urban flood risks are often determined by the frequency analysis of observed rainfall data, communicated using isohyetal maps showing rainfall totals for a range of durations and recurrence intervals. However, to assess ...
DAWN: Dashboard for Agricultural Water Use and Nutrient Management—A Predictive Decision Support System to Improve Crop Production in a Changing Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
