Abstract:
|
Using the most detailed data yet compiled for any region of the world, we investigate the response to climate change for yields of 15 food crops grown in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Both spatial and temporal correlations are addressed in the model. Results indicate that, at least for some of these food crops, yields are decreasing as the Canadian climate changes.
