Abstract: The sensitivity of simulated soybean yield to spatial averaging of meteorological data was analyzed for the central United States during a 23-year period. Regional yield was simulated using the physiological model, SOYGRO, ...

Abstract: The historical climate record and seasonal temperature and precipitation records provide useful datasets for making short-term drought predictions. A variety of methods have exploited these resources, but few have ...

Abstract: A method for weekly monitoring of the Palmer Drought Index (PDI) by using four parallel month-long calculation chains in rotation (?ROLLING? method) was tested for the Kansas Northwest Climate Division and the South Carolina ...

Abstract: Three closely related issues that affect drought estimation in regions with limited precipitation data are addressed by investigating methods for filling missing daily precipitation data, handling short-term records, and ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the influence of spatial interpolation and aggregation of data to depict drought at different spatial units relevant to and often required for drought management. Four different methods for drought ...
