Economic impacts of climate change on agriculture: A comparison of process-based and statistical yield models
07 Sep 2017 | Contributor(s): Frances C Moore, Uris Lantz C Baldos, Tom Hertel
A large number of studies have been published examining the implications of climate change for agricultural productivity that, broadly speaking, can be divided into process-based modeling and statistical approaches. Despite a general perception that results from these methods differ...

Market-mediated environmental impacts of biofuels
31 Jul 2014 | Publications | Contributor(s): Tom Hertel, Wallace E. Tyner
This paper surveys the evidence on market-mediated environmental impacts of biofuels, with special attention to the indirect greenhouse gas emissions stemming from land cover change in the wake of increased demand for biofuel feedstocks. We find clear evidence that market mediated land use...

Metadata for Indiana Stream Flow Data
15 May 2012 | Downloads | Contributor(s): Jake R Carlson
The United States Geological Survey (USGS) daily streamflow dataset is the source of this dataset. Streamflow data are subjected to human interference, and therefore data contain both natural and regulated flows. This practice does not cause serious problems in flood frequency analysis (flows are...
