The TephraProb package provides a framework for i) accessing, pre processing, and analyzing model inputs (e.g. retrieval and probabilistic analysis of Reanalysis wind data), ii) building probabilistic eruption scenarios, iii) running a suitable tephra dispersal model and iv) post-processing and exporting model results.
Predictive cartography showed suitable dispersal areas within potential juvenile distribution ranges that enable more efficient design of special conservation programmes.
Together with meteorological data and field size, these data can represent source strength in suitable dispersal models.
For many species, there may be no areas with a suitable climate regardless of dispersal ability, these species are considered to be at high risk of extinction.
Seed dispersal of the palm Oenocarpus bataua by long-wattled umbrellabirds Cephalopterus penduliger generates high seed densities in leks (i.e., multi-male display sites), providing a suitable venue to investigate how dispersal by this frugivore may influence seed source diversity and genetic structure at local and landscape levels.
However, in the presence of susceptible hosts, an environment that favors rapid arthropod amplification, an efficient mechanism for dispersal, and a suitable climate for transmission, DENV, RVFV, Japanese encephalitis virus, and YFV may cause epidemic outbreaks of immense proportions.
As the Strait of Sicily was considerably narrower during glacial periods due to eustatic sea level lowering, the transition from Mindel glaciation to Holstein interglacial with still low sea level but already higher temperatures might have been a suitable time period for this dispersal.
It is acknowledged that FALL3D is one of a number of suitable ash dispersal models that could be utilised for an analysis of this kind.
We focused here only on the first step of dispersal, i.e. the decision to leave a suitable habitat.
However, high dispersal distances reduce local fecundity and the probability that seeds will reach a suitable habitat.
