Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The changing climate influences not only the natural environment but also human economy and life. Agriculture is one of the most important branches of the national economy, which depends, to a large extent, on environmental criteria, and particularly on climatic conditions and the current weather course. Precipitation and air temperature determine the water balance, on which the development of crops depends. A detailed investigation of the relations between the climatic conditions and functioning of different components of the hydrosphere provides an elementary basics for plant cultivation conditions. Agriculture will face many, more serious challenges in the coming decades due to climate change; therefore, knowledge of the soil–plant–atmosphere system at various spatial and temporal scales, considering climate change and variability, is relevant.
The Special Issue of Atmosphere is open to a wide range of research dealing with the thermal conditions, floods, droughts, water deficit, frosts, strong winds and extreme weather events influencing the agriculture. Thus, specialists on atmosphere, soil physics and chemistry, hydrology, meteorology, climatology, phenology, agronomy and others are welcome. In addition to its purely scientific character, knowledge concerning the responses and rate of changes occurring in agriculture due to climate conditions can also have an applicative character, providing the necessary basis for undertaking mitigation and corrective measures aiming to slow down the effects of global warming.
