Global population‐weighted degree‐day projections for a combination of climate and socio‐economic scenarios
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "International Journal of Climatology"
DOI: 10.1002/joc.7328
Abstract: The projected global temperature increase in the 21st century is expected to have consequences on energy consumption due to increase (decrease) in energy demand to cool (heat) the built environments. Such increase (decrease) also depends… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cropro.2017.08.025
Abstract: Outbreaks of saddle gall midge (Haplodiplosis marginata) affecting wheat and other cereals are difficult to anticipate and may not be identified until damage has occurred. Earlier work on this pest has shown that degree day… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/jog.2018.55
Abstract: ABSTRACT Meltwater is important to understanding glacier health and dynamics. Since melt measurements are uncommon, ice ablation estimates are often based on models including the positive degree day (PDD) model. The PDD estimate is popular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skaa278.242
Abstract: We used a fecal near infrared spectroscopy (FNIRS) calibration for cattle diet crude protein (CP) to evaluate the efficacy of growing degree day (GDD) as a remotely-sensed method to monitor grazing animal nutrition. Composite fecal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1744-7917.12750
Abstract: We estimated thermal developmental thresholds (T0) and degree‐day (DD) constants for the immature stages of two tephritid pests, Bactrocera zonata (Saunders) and Ceratitis capitata (Weidenmann). Males of both species were trapped in an Egyptian guava… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/horticulturae10121346
Abstract: Timing insecticide applications with insect emergence is critical for the management of cranberry pests like Sparganothis fruitworm (Sparganothis sulfureana, Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). The annual peak flight of S. sulfureana has previously been predicted using a degree-day… read more here.
