Hogan, D., Schlenker, W. Non-linear relationships between daily temperature extremes and US agricultural yields uncovered by global gridded meteorological datasets. Nat Commun

Objective:

  • Estimate non-linear relationships between temperature and corn or soybean yields, controlling for precipitation, state-specific quadratic time trends to capture all time-invariant confounding factors

Case:

  • US and Sub-Saharan Africa, grid

Methodology:

  • Regression

Data Source

  • ERA5-Land and GMFD
  • Weather

Findings:

  • Harmful effects of temperature extremes when linked to US corn and soybean yields
