Wheat adaptation under climate change
Downscaling climate projections and testing adaptation options for wheat systems.
At the CASSANDRA Lab at the University of Milan, I worked on the impact of climate change on wheat across different countries and explored adaptation strategies based on climate and crop-response analysis.
This involved selecting and processing historical weather data, retrieving future climate information in R, and using stochastic weather generation approaches to downscale projections for scenario analysis.
The work helped connect climate data processing with practical adaptation questions in agriculture.
