Increased crop damage in the US from excess precipitation under climate change
Recent flooding and heavy precipitation events in the US and worldwide have caused great damage to crop production. If the frequency of these weather extremes were to increase in the near future, as recent trends for the US indicate and as projected by global climate models (e.g., US National Assessment, Overview Report, 2001, The Potential Consequences of Climate Variability and Change, Nation...
متن کاملPrecipitation Extremes Under Climate Change
The response of precipitation extremes to climate change is considered using results from theory, modeling, and observations, with a focus on the physical factors that control the response. Observations and simulations with climate models show that precipitation extremes intensify in response to a warming climate. However, the sensitivity of precipitation extremes to warming remains uncertain w...
متن کاملMutagenesis in crop improvement under the climate change
The purpose of mutation induction is to enhance mutation rate in a short duration in developing new plant varieties. The occurrence of spontaneous mutation frequency rate is very low and difficult to use in plant breeding. Traditionally mutations are induced by physical (e.g. gamma radiation) and chemical (e.g. ethylmethane sulfonate) mutagen treatment of both seed and vegetatively propagated c...
متن کاملUncertainty Investigation of Precipitation and Temperature Scenarios for the Sira Basin under Climate Change Impact
Results of assessment of the future climate change impacts is associated with some uncertainties. Considering the range of uncertainties increases reliability of the results. In this study, climate change impacts on daily precipitation, maximum and minimum temperature of Sira basin are assessed using LARS-WG model, for 2036-65 period. Accordingly, uncertainty of new emissions scenarios (RCP2.6،...
متن کاملStandard Precipitation Index (SPI) analysis in Karoon 3 Watershed under climate change
The aim of this study is to investigate climate change impact on Karoon3 basin in future periods. For this purpose, the simulated precipitation of 10 AOGCM models, including BCM2.0, CGCM3T63, CNRMCM3, CSIROMK3.0, GFDLCM2.0, GISS-ER, HADCM3, INMCM3.0, IPSLCM4, MIROC3.2 MEDRES was used to simulate drought index. Monthly precipitation was calculated by inverse distance weighted method. Standard Pr...
