Comparing the impact of environmental conditions and microphysics on the forecast uncertainty of deep convective clouds and hail [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020
Severe hailstorms have the potential to damage buildings and crops. However, important processes for the prediction of hailstorms are insufficiently represented in operational weather forecast models.

Gender Empowerment and Climate‐Smart Agriculture: Insights and Implications for Achieving Gender Equity and Climate Resilience

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of male and female empowerment, as well as gender empowerment inequality, on the adoption of climate‐smart agriculture (CSA) practices. Using a conditional mixed process model, we analyse survey data from 743 households across Henan, Shandong and Hebei provinces in China.

Basis risk, social comparison, perceptions of fairness, and demand for insurance: A field experiment in Ethiopia

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract Index insurance lowers agricultural risk but covers only covariate risks. Since farmers do not have complete insurance, they may develop mistrust of insurance when experiencing crop losses and not receiving payouts. Although recent innovations in remote sensing enable the provision of more complete insurance including coverage for ...

Canola yield prediction and genotype selection using uncrewed aerial system multispectral imagery and machine learning models

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Evaluation and selection of canola breeding lines across multiple years and locations are vital for variety development. However, accurately measuring canola (Brassica napus L.) yield under field conditions is challenging due to end‐of‐season events such as rain, windstorms, and hail, as well as variability in plant maturity and pod shattering.

Increased hailstorms in cities through cell merger mechanism across North America and East Asia

open access: yesNature Communications
Hailstorms rank among the most destructive extreme weather events globally, causing substantial property damage. While limited case studies suggest that cities may exacerbate hailstorms, the underlying mechanisms remain uncertain because of the complex ...

Orchard netting impacts on biodiversity leading to cascading effects at the ecosystem level

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2448-2466, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Agriculture must ensure food production without further compromising the ecosystem functions upon which it depends. Agricultural practices should therefore avoid harming farmland biodiversity, especially of taxa that supply the key ecosystem services (e.g.
