 Top Story - COTTON DOESN'T SHRINK FROM CLIMATE CHANGE - December 10, 2001
A new NASA-funded study finds that cotton yields are likely to increase in the Southeastern United States if carbon dioxide levels continue to rise as projected this century, and if farmers can adapt their agricultural practices to the resulting climate change.
"Cotton is a very important economic crop for U.S. agriculture, and the impacts of climate change on cotton production have not been examined on a regional scale before," said Linda Mearns, a co-author of the study and a researcher at NCAR's Environmental and Societal Impacts Group.
When the climate change resulting from CO2 doubling was combined with the potential for enhanced cotton plant growth as a result of greater carbon availability, the fine scale model showed a 5 percent increase in yields, while the large scale model predicted a 16 percent increase.
