Abstract
BACKGROUND Irrigation is used extensively to enhance grain production and ensure food security. Many studies have used crop models and global climate models to study the variation of irrigated crop yield in the context of climate change. But most considered the influence of direct climate change but neglected the influence of irrigation water availability, which is affected by land-use/cover change (LUCC) and indirect climate change, on irrigated crop yield. This study therefore developed a framework including Patch-generating Land Use Simulation model, Soil and Water Assessment Tool, Agricultural Production Systems sImulator Model, and global climate models for exploring the impacts of LUCC, direct climate change, and indirect climate change on wheat yield in a typical watershed. RESULTS Both LUCC and climate change caused increased runoff from October to May, and thus increased the irrigation water availability, by 51.6 and 30.7 mm per growing season under 1.5 and 2.0 °C warming, respectively. The combined influence of LUCC, direct, and indirect climate change increased wheat yield by about 18.5% and 15.5% in the context of 1.5 and 2.0 °C warming, respectively. The relative contribution of LUCC, indirect climate change and direct climate change to yield was 4.7%, 41.2%, and 54.1% under 1.5 °C warming, and 13.1%, 28.7%, and 58.2% under 2.0 °C warming, respectively. CONCLUSION We suggest that changes in irrigation water availability should be considered from a watershed perspective when simulating the influence of climate change on crop yield, especially regional crop production estimation. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Wu J, Gu Y, Sun K, Xing X, Ma X. Impacts of climate change on winter wheat net primary production: the regulatory role of crop management. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:1420-1430. [PMID: 37800371 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/06/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Huang-Huai-Hai Plain (3HP) is the main agricultural area in China. Although climate change (CC) and crop management (CM) are considered factors affecting the winter wheat net primary production (NPP) in this region, their effects remain unclear. In the present study, we evaluated the relative contributions of CC and CM to winter wheat aboveground NPP (ANPP) in the 3HP and the relationships between climatic factors and ANPP using the first-order difference method from 2000 to 2020. RESULTS CM had a greater influence on the ANPP of winter wheat than did CC. However, the relative contribution of CM to ANPP gradually decreased in humid and dry sub-humid regions with the development of winter wheat. Furthermore, in areas characterized by low temperatures and limited precipitation, CC became the dominant factor contributing to ANPP, indicating that varieties resilient to drought and cold should be selected in these regions. Minimum and average temperatures were the dominant factors driving spatiotemporal variations in ANPP during the early stage of winter wheat growth, whereas maximum temperature constrained growth throughout the winter wheat growth cycle. When winter wheat entered the vigorous growth stage, precipitation and solar radiation replaced temperature as the driving factors influencing winter wheat growth. CONCLUSION The results of the present study provide guidance for optimizing winter wheat crop management in the 3HP. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:12341. [PMID: 36231641 PMCID: PMC9565046 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph191912341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2022] [Revised: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The current study examines the long-run effects of climatic factors on wheat production in China's top three wheat-producing provinces (Hebei, Henan, and Shandong). The data set consists of observations from 1992 to 2020 on which several techniques, namely, fully modified OLS (FMOLS), dynamic OLS (DOLS), and canonical co-integrating regression (CCR) estimators, and Granger causality, are applied. The results reveal that climatic factors, such as temperature and rainfall, negatively influenced wheat production in Henan Province. This means that Henan Province is more vulnerable to climate change. In contrast, it is observed that climatic conditions (via temperature and rainfall) positively contributed to wheat production in Hebei Province. Moreover, temperature negatively influenced wheat production in Shandong Province, while rainfall contributed positively to wheat production. Further, the results of Granger causality reveal that climatic factors and other determinants significantly influenced wheat production in the selected provinces.

Abstract
To inform targeted adaptation measures, comprehensive assessments of climate change impacts on agricultural systems are urgently needed. The current study analyzed the production (including phenology, yield, ET, and WUE) of major crops in the near future (2011-2040) through probabilistic assessment. The Crop-Environment Resource Synthesis (CERES)-Wheat/Maize model was driven by ensemble climate projections from five global climate models (GCMs) under three emission scenarios (RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP8.5). Results showed that: (1) Compared with the base period, the probability of advanced maturity for wheat and maize was 90.36-91.18% and 62.96-64.50%, respectively. The probability of yield reduction for wheat and maize was 64.12-68.93% and 40.44-41.41%, respectively. The probability of water use efficiency (WUE) reduction for wheat and maize was 51.09-53.94% and 35.86-37.93%, respectively. (2) In the absence of adaptation measures, substantial yield loss was found in major crop-producing areas, including the northern winter wheat planting area and Huang-Huai Plain spring-summer maize zone. The spatial overlap of the vulnerable area will exacerbate food insecurity. (3) The decrease in wheat yield and WUE were both greater than that of maize. Replacing highly sensitive crops with heat-tolerant varieties and dietary diversity should be advocated to cope with future climate change. The results will contribute to adaptive decision-making in China.

Abstract
The current study considered the climate extreme index (CEI) values originated from extreme environmental events (EEEs) by following the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) guidelines. The EEEs were fractionated into six sub-categories (i.e., high temperature, low temperature, high precipitation, low precipitation, drought, and wind), and the combined impact of CEIs was utilized to develop an algorithm for the estimation of the phenology sensitivity index (P Si ). Finally, the CEIs, and the P Si were undergone the development of the phenology forcing (PF ) model. The developed model showed a high sensitivity at the CEI value of as low as ≥1.0. Furthermore, the uncertainty index varied between 0.03 and 0.07, making a parabolic curvature at increasing CEIs (1.0-15.0). The current study precisely estimates the tendency of EEEs for phenology change. It will assist in policy-making and planning crop cultivation plans for achieving sustainable development goal 2 (SDG2) of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
