  Title Crop modelling for integrated assessment of risk to food production from climate change Type Journal Article

  Abstract The complexity of risks posed by climate change and possible adaptations for crop production has called for integrated assessment and modelling (IAM) approaches linking biophysical and economic models. This paper attempts to provide an overview of the present state of crop modelling to assess climate change risks to food production and to which extent crop models comply with IAM demands. Considerable progress has been made in modelling effects of climate variables, where crop models best satisfy IAM demands. Demands are partly satisfied for simulating commonly required assessment variables. However, progress on the number of simulated crops, uncertainty propagation related to model parameters and structure, adaptations and scaling are less advanced and lagging behind IAM demands. The limitations are considered substantial and apply to a different extent to all crop models. Overcoming these limitations will require joint efforts, and consideration of novel modelling approaches.

  Title A framework for assessing the uncertainty in crop model predictions Type Report
  Year (down) 2014 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 3 Issue Pages D-C4.1.2  
  Keywords  
  Abstract It is of major importance in modeling to understand and quantify the uncertainty in model predictions, both in order to know how much confidence to have in those predictions, and as a first step toward model improvement. Here we show that there are basically three different approaches to evaluating uncertainty, and we explain the advantages and drawbacks of each. This is a necessary first step toward developing protocols for evaluation of uncertainty and so obtaining a clearer picture of the reliability of crop models. No Label

  Title Protocol for model evaluation Type Report
  Year (down) 2014 Publication FACCE MACSUR Reports Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 3 Issue Pages D-L2.2/D  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This deliverable focuses on the development of methods for model evaluation in order to have unambiguous indications derived from the use of several evaluation metrics. The information about model quality is aggregated into a single indicator using a fuzzy expert system that can be applied to a wide range of model estimates where suitable test data are available. This is a cross-cutting activity between CropM (C1.4) and LiveM (L2.2). No Label

  Title Agrimod: The Agricultural Modelling Knowledge Hub Website Type Conference Article
  Year (down) 2014 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Agrimod is a new web-based Agricultural Modelling Knowledge Hub covering crop, livestock and trade models and the data they require, plus a wide range of supporting tools and resources. The purpose is to address the growing need, particularly in developing countries, of building national capabilities for researching agriculture and food security using models. To support research in this area, Agrimod provides a facility enabling users to access information and data needed to more successfully develop and employ agricultural modelling. Registered users can add new information about models, data, case studies, training, funding sources etc., whilst also being able to edit existing content  and contribute to discussion threads on key modelling issues. It will serve as a model, data and case study inventory. The vision is to unite the existing agricultural modelling community by providing a platform whereby models can be showcased, their applications discussed and new collaborations built, streamlining the process by which new model activities are developed. Moreover, Agrimod is intended to be a user–friendly information portal to people in other areas of research or new to agricultural modelling, looking to develop skills and acquire first-hand knowledge on agricultural modelling research. Thus Agrimod serves as a central knowledge hub for information on agricultural modelling activities worldwide and can be used by MACSUR as a complimentary information dissemination tool.
