EDDMapS Predictor
Modeling tools to predict species range changes
Invasive Range Expanders Listing Tool
This tool provides lists of terrestrial invasive plants expected to expand their ranges into the chosen county or state with climate change by 2040-2060.
Future Range and Certainty Maps
This map indicates the agreement of future climate models predicting county-level presence for the selected species by 2041 - 2060 based on currently available evidence. Higher numbers indicate higher agreement among models that the county will be suitable for the chosen species by 2041 - 2060.
Future Abundance Habitat Maps
This map indicates the agreement of future abundance-pseudo abundance species distribution models predicting the suitability of counties for populations of the selected species to maintain at least 5% cover ('high abundance') given a +2°C climate change scenario. Higher numbers indicate higher agreement among models that the county will be suitable for abundant populations of the chosen species by 2100 based on currently available evidence.
INHABIT - Invasive Species Habitat Tool
Species distribution models (as used for INHABIT) are created by associating known occurrences of a species with environmental characteristics where those occurrences are found. These associations are then used to make predictions of habitat suitability to all locations across the country to make the maps.
