This study does not constitute a true spatial CC assessment,but is based on biophysical point-scale simulations in key AEZsof Central Asia. To carry out such regional/spatial assessment, acomprehensive set of information (maps) would be needed, suchas about distribution of wheat varieties, or at least current landuse, regional agronomic management practices, as well as soil andweather data suitable for daily time-step crop model simulationsat spatial scale.
