Degree-Days: Growing, Heating, and Cooling [PDF]

open access: yesEDIS, 2018
How much and when it rains, freezes, and thaws can make the difference between boom and bust for a year's crop. However, temperature can predict more than boom or bust. Atmospheric temperature can predict the growth rates of many plants. For this reason,

Degree Days: Heating, Cooling, and Growing

open access: yesEDIS, 2007
ABE-381, a 7-page illustrated fact sheet by Clyde W. Fraisse, John Bellow, and Charles Brown, discusses how growers can use the AgClimate Web site to find out how to predict Growing Degree Day accumulation for the current season, and to review GDD for ...

Evaluating the Sensitivity of Growing Degree Days as an Agro-Climatic Indicator of the Climate Change Impact: A Case Study of the Russian Far East

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
Climate is a key factor in agriculture, but we are unable to adequately predict future climates. Although some studies have addressed the short and long-run impacts of climate change on agriculture, few of them specifically focused on the analysis of its

Can Growing Degree Days and Photoperiod Predict Spring Wheat Phenology?

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2017
Wheat (Triticum aestivum) production in the rainfed area of Pothwar Pakistan is extremely vulnerable to high temperature. The expected increase in temperature due to global warming should result in shorter crop life cycles, and thus lower biomass and ...

Optimizing sowing date to mitigate loss of growing degree days and enhance crop water productivity of groundwater-irrigated spring maize

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management
Groundwater irrigation (GWI) decreases soil temperature and increases crop growth duration and water consumption. Optimizing sowing dates offers a cost-effective solution to mitigate these effects.

Spatial-Temporal Simulation of LAI on Basis of Rainfall and Growing Degree Days

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2017
The dimensionless Leaf Area Index (LAI) is widely used to characterize vegetation cover. With recent remote sensing developments LAI is available for large areas, although not continuous. However, in practice, continuous spatial-temporal LAI datasets are

Projecting Future Change in Growing Degree Days for Winter Wheat

open access: yesAgriculture, 2016
Southwest Oklahoma is one of the most productive regions in the Great Plains (USA) where winter wheat is produced. To assess the effect of climate change on the growing degree days (GDD) available for winter wheat production, we selected from the CMIP5 ...
