      abstract = {Using principal component analysis, a climate index is  developed to estimate the linkage
between climate and crop  yields. The indices based on three climate projections are  then
applied to forecast future crop yield responses. We  identify spatial heterogeneity of crop yield responses to  future climate change across a number of U.S. northern and  southern states. The results indicate that future  hotter/drier weather conditions will likely have  significant negative impacts on southern states, whereas  only mild impacts are expected in most northern states.},
