Turfgrass and Climate Change

Abstract: A gronomy J our n al • Volume 10 9, I s sue 4 • 2 017 C limate impacts on biological systems have the potential to disrupt phenological cycles and physiological responses of plants, animals, insects, and diseases. Changes in temperature, precipitation, humidity, solar radiation, and CO 2 expected to occur over the next 30 to 40 yr will affect biological systems; however, not all to the same degree. One aspect of climate change that is often understated is that future variations will not be uniform in either sp… Show more

“…Interestingly, these maps are somewhat dissimilar to historical maps of growing zones used for turfgrass, which could be associated with changes in climate affecting species use on golf courses (Hatfield, 2017). Another factor is that data were specific to golf course putting greens whereas general maps of turfgrass growing zones reflect species selection for lawns, sports fields, and other areas where species other than creeping bentgrass or ultradwarf bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon × C. transvaalensis Burtt-Davy) are more readily used.…”

“…The turfgrass industry is confronted with challenges from anthropogenic water shortages caused by increasing population and industrial demands, and changing patterns of water balance on the continent due to climate change (Barros & Field, 2014; Gelernter, Stowell, Johnson, Brown, & Beditz, 2015; Hatfield, 2017). As one solution to conserving water, local water restrictions have been imposed on stakeholders including residential homeowners; in the United States, about 68% of total turfgrass area is composed of residential lawns (Milesi, Elvidge, & Nemani, 2009).…”

“…With ongoing climate change and its impact on biological systems through increased temperatures (Hatfield, 2017) and limited water availability, it is possible that cool‐season turfgrass species, whose limiting factors are heat, drought, and disease, could be replaced by bermudagrass cultivars at higher latitudes. The objective of this research was to test the performance of five bermudagrass cultivars, including new releases in Europe, in two different Mediterranean locations (latitude 39° N in Spain and 45° N in Italy), focusing on turf quality over the growing season of the sowing year, winter dormancy, and spring green‐up.…”
