Predicting suitable breeding areas for different locust species – A multi-scale approach accounting for environmental conditions and current land cover situation

Abstarct In this study, we present a fused multi-scale approach to model habitat suitability index (HSI) maps for three different locust species. The presented methodology was applied for the Italian locust (Calliptamus italicus, CIT) in Pavlodar oblast, Northern Kazakhstan, for the Moroccan locust (Dociostaurus maroccanus, DMA) in Turkistan oblast, South Kazakhstan and for the desert … Continue reading Predicting suitable breeding areas for different locust species – A multi-scale approach accounting for environmental conditions and current land cover situation
