Abstract
Climate change has become a topic of worldwide concern. There are few locations where the general population has a greater vested interest in climate change than the Midwest. The economy of most Midwest communities is pr1marily dependent upon agriculture, and weather remains the primary uncontrollable factor inducing uncertainty in production. Perhaps the greatest potential effect of climate change is the influence on crops.
