"This book covers a lot of ground in its exploration of the way climate change is affecting agriculture: from population genetic approaches looking at yield effects to global ensemble models coupling climate and crop models. It examines issues from the small scale, via regional to global; and explores current approaches and the gaps that need to be filled to make projections more robust. The book provides a useful overview of the area, allowing readers to judge the extent to which we really understand how climate change will affect agriculture in years to come, and what we need to do better in order to do so." (Professor Tim Benton, Research Director, Emerging Risks and Director of the Environment and Society Programme, Chatham House, UK) Climate change is a key threat to agriculture. Modelling is fundamental to assessing its potential impacts. This collection summarises the wealth of research on improving climate impact models and their use in assessing impacts on different regions . Modelling climate change impacts on agricultural systems reviews research on developing models in areas such as improving data flows, incorporating genetic information and dealing with uncertainty. This collection also reviews what we know about potential climate change impacts on regional agricultural systems such, Europe, North America, Latin America, Australia and Oceania, as well as different regions in Asia and Africa. Edited by an internationally-renowned researcher in the field, Modelling climate change impacts on agricultural systems will be a standard reference for university and other researchers in environmental and agricultural science, agronomists, crop modellers, developers of decision support systems, as well as government and private sector agencies supporting sustainable crop and livestock production. Dr Claas Nendel heads the Research Group on Landscape Modelling at the Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF), Germany. He is also Professor of Landscape Systems Analysis at the University of Potsdam. Dr Nendel is the Past President of the European Society of Agronomy and hosted, among other events, the first International Crop Modelling Symposium in Berlin in 2016. He is principal developer of the MONICA model which simulates biophysical processes in agroecosystems to allow assessment of regional impacts of climate change, and is internationally known for his contribution to agroecosystem modelling.
