denim: An R package for deterministic compartmental models with flexible dwell‐time distributions
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Compartmental models are widely used for dynamical systems where states are discrete, such as in infectious disease epidemiology with the so‐called Susceptible‐Infectious‐Recovered (SIR) framework. For mathematical simplicity, rates of transition between compartments are generally assumed to be independent of the dwell time (or secondary ...

Field‐level crop choice responses to weather‐induced yield shocks in the US Corn Belt
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract As climate change increases the frequency and severity of extreme heat events, farmers are expected to face greater variability in crop yields. Using 10 million field‐level observations, this study examines how farmers in the US Corn Belt adjust corn–soybean rotation decisions in response to yield shocks largely driven by weather fluctuations.
