Modeling surface soil and phosphorus transport using DSSAT models

open access: yes, 2018
Computer simulation models are regarded as important tools to address concerns about the environmental impact of agricultural activities and have increasingly been used to complement field research. The CERES-Maize and CROPGRO-Soybean, two of the main crop growth models incorporated into the Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT ...

Assessing Maize Yield Variability under Climate Change Using DSSAT Model

open access: yesJournal of Scientific Research and Reports
Crop production is inherently sensitive to variability in climate. Temperature and CO2 are two important parameters related to climate change, affecting crop yield in a particular region. In this study, an attempt has been made to assess the impact of these two parameters on the productivity of maize crop taking sub tropical region of Jammu as study ...

Yield Predication by DSSAT Model of Wheat Crop: A Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environment and Climate Change
The DSSAT model predicts crop productivity under different crop management scenarios and fluctuating climate circumstances, necessitating the identification of a crop cultivar's genetic coefficient. The precision with which various parameters are calibrated and validated is essential to the effective application of crop models. The model was calibrated

Análise de Sensibilidade dos Coeficientes Genéticos do Modelo Canegro/DSSAT

open access: yesAnuário do Instituto de Geociências, 2017
The sensitivity analysis of genetic coefficients used in the productivity simulation of sugarcane by Canegro/DSSAT model (CD) was performed in order to identify which parameters have most relevance in the model calibration. The CD uses 20 parameters that aim to capture the differences between the varieties of sugarcane.

Global and local economic impacts of climate change in Syria and options for adaptation: [PDF]

open access: yes
There is broad consensus among scientists that climate change is altering weather patterns around the world. However, economists are only beginning to develop tools that allow for the quantification of such weather changes on countries' economies and ...
