Climate change impacts on the potential productivity of corn and winter wheat in their primary United States growing regions

We calculate the impacts of climate effects inferred from three atmospheric general circulation models (GCMs) at three levels of climate change severity associated with change in global mean temperature (GMT) of 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 degrees C and three levels of atmospheric CO2 concentration ({CO2})-365...

Summary:We calculate the impacts of climate effects inferred from three atmospheric general circulation models (GCMs) at three levels of climate change severity associated with change in global mean temperature (GMT) of 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 degrees C and three levels of atmospheric CO2 concentration ({CO2})-365 (no CO2 fertilization effect), 560 and 750 ppm-on the potential production of dryland winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and corn (Zea mays L.) for primary (current) U.S. growing regions of each crop.
