Climate impact and adaptation to heat and drought stress of regional and global wheat production por Noleto Luz Pequeno, Diego, Hernandez-Ochoa, Ixchel Manuela, Reynolds, Matthew, Sonder, Kai, Molero-Milan, Anabel, Robertson, Richard D.

“…In this study, we simulated climate change impacts and adaptation strategies for wheat globally using new crop genetic traits (CGT), including increased heat tolerance, early vigor to increase early crop water use, late flowering to reverse an earlier anthesis in warmer conditions, and the combined traits with additional nitrogen (N) fertilizer applications, as an option to maximize genetic gains. These simulations were completed using three wheat crop models and five Global Climate Models (GCM) for RCP 8.5 at mid-century. …”

Designing sustainable large-scale industrial plantation landscapes: use of natural forest remnants and corridors to maintain biodiversity, retain environmental functions/services,... por Poulsen, J.

“…Corridors have been considered as merely constraints to maximizing short-term earnings. Potential short-term economic incentives and benefits include: minimizing plantation damage caused by wind throw, fire and insect pest attack (by functioning as windbreaks, firebreaks, and providing habitat for biological control organisms), protecting and maintaining water quality and supply to both the plantation stands and the people living there, providing resources such as beneficial plants, and other NTFPs, for those local people who live within and around the plantation landscape, and, decreasing the plantation establishment and maintenance cost. …”
