Randomized trial predicts habitat suitability for Spodoptera litura, indicating important environmental factors.
Key Points
The aim is to predict the distribution dynamics of Spodoptera litura under climate change and to identify key environmental factors influencing its spread.
Utilized MaxEnt and Biomod2 for distribution modeling
Analyzed current and future habitat suitability under various climate scenarios
Examined the impact of precipitation during the warmest quarter on distribution
Habitat suitability projected to expand by 10.7 million km2 by the 2090s under SSP585
Northward shifts observed in suitable habitats, particularly in Asia and Europe
Precipitation in the warmest quarter identified as the critical factor influencing distribution
