We recently published a manuscript entitled “Enhancing crop model parameter estimation across computing environments: Utilizing the GLUE method and parallel computing for determining genetic coefficients” in Computers and Electronics in Agriculture. The study describes improvements in the Generalized Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) program, introducing a new parallel computing system for calibrating genetic parameters within the crop […]

Gridded crop modeling to simulate impacts of climate change and adaptation benefits in ACASA
Gridded crop modeling builds an understanding of how climate change impacts crops, helping researchers to adapt agricultural methods and combat food insecurity. Global temperatures are projected to warm between 1.5-2 degrees Celsius by the year 2050, and 2-4 degrees Celsius by 2100. This is likely to change precipitation patterns, which will impact crop yields, water […]
