Responses to atmospheric CO2 concentrations in crop simulation models: a review of current simple and semicomplex representations and options for model development KU Leuven
Elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations ([CO2]) cause direct changes in crop physiological processes (e.g., photosynthesis and stomatal conductance). To represent these CO2 responses, commonly used crop simulation models have been amended, using simple and semi-complex representations of the processes involved. Yet, there is no standard approach to, and often poor documentation of these developments. This study used a bottom-up approach ...
