    Abstract: Agriculture is a largely technical endeavour involving complicated managerial decision-making that affects crop performance. Farm-level modelling integrates crop models with agent behaviour to account for farmer decision-making and complete the representation of agricultural systems. To replicate an important part of agriculture in Central Europe a crop model was calibrated for a unique region's predominant crops: winter wheat, winter and spring barley, silage maize and winter rapeseed. Their cultivation was then simulated over multiple decades at daily resolution to test validity and stability, while adding the dimension of agent behaviour in relation to environmental and economic conditions. After validation against regional statistics, simulated future weather scenarios were used to forecast crop management and performance under anticipated global change. Farm management and crop genetics were treated as adaptive variables in the milieu of shifting climatic conditions to allow projections of agriculture in the study region into the coming decades.

    Abstract: Spring wheat ( Triticum aestivum L. cv. TRISO) was grown for three consecutive seasons in a free‐air carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) enrichment (FACE) field experiment in order to examine the effects on crop yield and grain quality. CO 2 enrichment promoted aboveground biomass (+11.8%) and grain yield (+10.4%). However, adverse effects were predominantly observed on wholegrain quality characteristics. Although the thousand‐grain weight remained unchanged, size distribution was significantly shifted towards smaller grains, which may directly relate to lower market value. Total grain protein concentration decreased significantly by 7.4% under elevated CO 2 , and protein and amino acid composition were altered. Corresponding to the decline in grain protein concentration, CO 2 enrichment resulted in an overall decrease in amino acid concentrations, with greater reductions in non‐essential than essential amino acids. Minerals such as potassium, molybdenum and lead increased, while manganese, iron, cadmium and silicon decreased, suggesting that adjustments of agricultural practices may be required to retain current grain quality standards. The concentration of fructose and fructan, as well as amounts per area of total and individual non‐structural carbohydrates, except for starch, significantly increased in the grain. The same holds true for the amount of lipids. With regard to mixing and rheological properties of the flour, a significant increase in gluten resistance under elevated CO 2 was observed. CO 2 enrichment obviously affected grain quality characteristics that are important for consumer nutrition and health, and for industrial processing and marketing, which have to date received little attention.

    Abstract: Future atmospheric CO2 concentrations are predicted to increase, and directly affect host plant phenology, which, in turn, is assumed to mediate the performance of herbivorous insects indirectly as well as the abundance and epidemiology of plant diseases. In a 4-year field experiment, spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Triso) and spring oilseed rape (Brassica napus L. cv. Campino) were grown using a mini- free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE) system, which consisted of a control (CON), an ambient treatment (AMB) and FACE treatments. The CON and AMB treatments did not receive additional CO2, whereas the FACE plots were moderately elevated by 150 μL L–1 CO2. The impact of elevated CO2 was examined with regard to plant phenology, biomass, leaf nitrogen and carbon, abundance of insect pest species and their relative population growth by either direct counts or yellow sticky traps. Occurrence and damage of plants by pathogens on spring wheat and oilseed rape were directly assessed. Disease infestations on plants were not significantly different between ambient and elevated CO2 in any of the years. Plant phenology, aboveground biomass, foliar nitrogen and carbon concentrations were also not significantly affected by CO2 enrichment. In contrast, the abundance of some species of insects was significantly influenced by elevated CO2, showing either an increase or a decrease in infestation intensity.

    Abstract: The spatial variability of topsoil water content (SWC) is often expressed through the relationship between its spatial mean 〈θ〉 and standard deviation σθ. The present study tests the concept that a reasonably performing land surface model (LSM) should be able to produce σθ–〈θ〉 data pairs that fall into a polygon, spanned by the cloud of observed data and two anchor points: σθ at the permanent wilting point σθ–〈θwp〉 and σθ at saturation σθ–〈θs〉. A state-of-the-art LSM, Noah-MP, was driven by atmospheric forcing data obtained from eddy covariance field measurements in two regions of southwestern Germany, Kraichgau (KR) and Swabian Alb (SA). KR is characterized with deep loess soils, whereas the soils in SA are shallow, clayey, and stony. The simulations series were compared with SWC data from soil moisture networks operating in the two study regions. The results demonstrate that Noah-MP matches temporal 〈θ〉 dynamics fairly well in KR, but performs poorly in SA. The best match is achieved with the van Genuchten–Mualem representation of soil hydraulic functions and site-specific rainfall, soil texture, green vegetation fraction (GVF) and leaf area index (LAI) input data. Nevertheless, most of the simulated σθ–〈θ〉 pairs are located outside the envelope of measurements and below the lower bound, which shows that the model smooths spatial SWC variability. This can be mainly attributed to missing topography and terrain information and inadequate representation of spatial variability of soil texture and hydraulic parameters, as well as the model assumption of a uniform root distribution.

    Abstract: Susceptibility of crops to drought may change under atmospheric CO 2 enrichment. We tested the effects of CO 2 enrichment and drought on the older malting barley cultivar Golden Promise ( GP ) and the recent variety Bambina ( BA ). Hypothesizing that CO 2 enrichment mitigates the adverse effects of drought and that GP shows a stronger response to CO 2 enrichment than BA , plants of both cultivars were grown in climate chambers. Optimal and reduced watering levels and two CO 2 concentrations (380 and 550 ppm) were used to investigate photosynthetic parameters, growth and yield. In contrast to expectations, CO 2 increased total plant biomass by 34 % in the modern cultivar while the growth stimulation was not significant in GP . As a reaction to drought, BA showed reduced biomass under elevated CO 2 , which was not seen in GP . Grain yield and harvest index ( HI ) were negatively influenced by drought and increased by CO 2 enrichment. BA formed higher grain yield and had higher water‐use efficiency of grain yield and HI compared to GP . CO 2 fertilization compensated for the negative effect of drought on grain yield and HI , especially in GP . Stomatal conductance proved to be the gas exchange parameter most sensitive to drought. Photosynthetic rate of BA showed more pronounced reaction to drought compared to GP . Overall, BA turned out to respond more intense to changes in water supply and CO 2 enrichment than the older GP .

    Abstract: Abstract. The energy balance of eddy covariance (EC) flux data is normally not closed. Therefore, at least if used for modelling, EC flux data are usually post-closed, i.e. the measured turbulent fluxes are adjusted so as to close the energy balance. At the current state of knowledge, however, it is not clear how to partition the missing energy in the right way. Eddy flux data therefore contain some uncertainty due to the unknown nature of the energy balance gap, which should be considered in model evaluation and the interpretation of simulation results. We propose to construct the post-closure methods uncertainty band (PUB), which essentially designates the differences between non-adjusted flux data and flux data adjusted with the three post-closure methods (Bowen ratio, latent heat flux (LE) and sensible heat flux (H) method). To demonstrate this approach, simulations with the NOAH-MP land surface model were evaluated based on EC measurements conducted at a winter wheat stand in southwest Germany in 2011, and the performance of the Jarvis and Ball–Berry stomatal resistance scheme was compared. The width of the PUB of the LE was up to 110 W m−2 (21% of net radiation). Our study shows that it is crucial to account for the uncertainty in EC flux data originating from lacking energy balance closure. Working with only a single post-closing method might result in severe misinterpretations in model–data comparisons.
