| Zusammenfassung |
| In the last decades the Euro-Mediterranean region has experienced an
increase in extreme temperature events such as heat waves. These extreme
weather conditions can strongly affect arable crop growth and final yields.
Here, early heat waves over Italy from 1995 to 2013 are identified and
characterised and their impact on durum wheat yields is investigated. As
expected, results confirm the impact of the 2003 heat wave and highlight a
high percentage of concurrence of early heat waves and significant negative
yield anomalies in 13 out of 39 durum wheat production areas. In
south-eastern Italy (the most important area for durum wheat production),
the percentage of concurrent events exceeds 80 %. |
