Crop Caleandar

Description

• A crop calendar simulated by the H08 model. See Hanasaki et al. (2008a,b) for methods and results of validation. Crop type distribution was provided by Monfreda et al. (2008).

Files

• Crop type of the first crop

• Crop type of the second crop

  • Legend

• • Note: (g) indicates the assignment of generic crop calendar: due to lack of the the crop parameter,  planting and harvesting dates were estimated from generic crop calendar, hence the crop-specific phenology is not fully represented.

• Planting date of the first crop

• Planting date of the second crop

• Harvesting date of the first crop

• Harvesting date of the second crop

  • Note: Shown in Day of Year.
