Overview

Analysis using species distribution modeling shows climate change alters habitat suitability for bats, indicating potential pest control challenges in agricultural landscapes.

Key Points

  • Species distribution modeling projects habitat shifts for bats due to climate change, affecting pest control dynamics.
  • Significant dietary reliance on lepidopteran pests like Noctuidae and Crambidae was confirmed through DNA metabarcoding.
  • Integrating multiple algorithms for habitat suitability assessments reveals intricate responses to future climate scenarios.
  • Emerging spatial mismatches between ecological functions and climatic conditions highlight necessity for landscape connectivity.
