1. Multi-Temporal Yield Pattern Analysis - Adaption of Pattern Recognition to Agronomic Data

In precision agriculture, the understanding of yield variability, both spatial and temporal, can deliver essential information for the decision making of site-specific crop management. Since commercial yield mapping started in the early 1990s, most research studies have focused on spatial variance or short-term temporal variance analyzed statistically in order to produce trend maps. Nowadays, longer records of high-quality yield data are available offering a new potential to evaluate yield variability... G. Blasch, J.A. Taylor
