DSSAT Mailing List

A mailing list for DSSAT users and others interested in crop model development, crop model applications and decision support systems has been established at the University of Georgia and is being mirrored at Google Groups. Please feel free to share general questions, concerns, successes, messages and thoughts related to DSSAT and its application to the DSSAT Listserv.  We currently have more than 20,200 unique e-mail addresses on the DSSAT listserver for people who are interested in crop modeling and decision support systems. For specific DSSAT problems and errors, please use “Contact Us” to avoid unnecessary e-mail clutter.

  • PhD scholarships in modelling of soil carbon and crop waterlogging
    by Matthew Harrison on July 26, 2024 at 4:25 am

    The Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture at the University of Tasmania, Australia, seek qualified applicants for two PhD projects. One project aims to develop integrated approaches for marrying spatial technologies with temporal process-based models (the purpose being to improve the spatio-temporal prediction of soil carbon at scale). The second project aims to develop algorithms for, and application of, process-based models for simulating impacts of crop waterlogging, and potential farming systems adaptation options thereto.
