Multimodel ensembles improve predictions of crop–environment–management interactions
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/97157
Abstract
A recent innovation in assessment of climate change impact on agricultural production has been to use crop multimodel ensembles (MMEs). These studies usually find large variability between individual models but that the ensemble mean (e‐mean) and median (e‐median) often seem to predict quite well. However, few studies have specifically…
