Statistically bias-corrected and downscaled climate models underestimate the adverse effects of extreme heat on U.S. maize yields

Historical annual maize yields in the U.S. are overestimated by CMIP5 models and underestimated by bias-corrected and downscaled models due to differences in temperature and precipitation hindcasts, according to a multi-model ensemble comparison.
