2009 journal article

Nonlinear temperature effects indicate severe damages to US crop yields under climate change

PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 106(37), 15594–15598.

By: W. Schlenker * & M. Roberts n

author keywords: agriculture; panel analysis; time series; cross section; farmer adaptation
MeSH headings : Crops, Agricultural / growth & development; Databases, Factual; Gossypium / growth & development; Greenhouse Effect; Models, Biological; Nonlinear Dynamics; Soybeans / growth & development; Temperature; United States; Weather; Zea mays / growth & development
topics (OpenAlex): Climate change impacts on agriculture; Plant responses to elevated CO2; Plant Water Relations and Carbon Dynamics
TL;DR: Yields increase with temperature but that temperatures above these thresholds are very harmful, suggesting limited historical adaptation of seed varieties or management practices to warmer temperatures because the cross-section includes farmers' adaptations to warmer climates and the time-series does not.
