Simulating maize phenology as a function of air temperature with a linear and a nonlinear model Simulação da fenologia do milho em função da temperatura do ar por um modelo linear e um não linear

The objective of this study was to adapt a nonlinear model (Wang and Engel - WE) for simulating the phenology of maize (Zea mays L.), and to evaluate this model and a linear one (thermal time), in order to predict developmental stages of a field-grown maize variety. A field experiment, during 2005/2...
