Climate change threatens food security by affecting the productivity of major cereal crops. To date, agroclimatic risk projections through indicators have focused on expected hazards exposure during the crop's current vulnerable seasons, without considering the non-stationarity of their phenology under evolving climatic conditions. We propose a new method for spatially classifying agroclimatic risks for wheat, combining high-resolution climatic data with a wheat's phenological model.

- Climate significantly influences the terroir expression in viticulture, with thermal conditions affecting vine development and grape composition.
- A study was conducted in Bordeaux, France, using a network of 90 temperature sensors to analyze temperature variability over 19,233 hectares from 2012 to 2018, focusing on key phenological stages of the Merlot grapevine.
- Results highlighted substantial spatial temperature variability, especially in minimum temperatures, which impacted vine behavior and allowed for enhanced vineyard management through mapping and modeling local temperature effects.
