CR SPECIAL 31:

Modelling climate change impacts for food security

Editors: M. Bindi, M. Semenov, T. Palosuo, M. Trnka

CR SPECIAL 31 evaluates current state-of-the- art crop modelling applications and their future role in climate risk assessment. The Special is comprised of fifteen studies focusing on Europe and Africa, which were carried out to improve crop modelling tools and applications in climate change assessments, elucidate uncertainties in the modelling of impacts in agriculture, and assess climate-change impact and adaptation strategies in agriculture.

Contributions to this CR SPECIAL highlight the potential of crop models — in combination with seasonal climate forecasts and long-term climate scenarios — for assessing climate change impacts in the agricultural sector. The studies document the need for high-quality calibration data in crop modelling, particularly for model responses to changes in soil and crop management.
