mappestRisk0.1.2 package

Create Maps Forecasting Risk of Pest Occurrence

There are three different modules: (1) model fitting and selection using a set of the most commonly used equations describing developmental responses to temperature helped by already existing R packages ('rTPC') and nonlinear regression model functions from 'nls.multstart' (Padfield et al. 2021, <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13585>), with visualization of model predictions to guide ecological criteria for model selection; (2) calculation of suitability thermal limits, which consist on a temperature interval delimiting the optimal performance zone or suitability; and (3) climatic data extraction and visualization inspired on previous research (Taylor et al. 2019, <doi:10.1111/1365-2664.13455>), with either exportable rasters, static map images or html, interactive maps.
