This research develops a spatially-explicit model of recreational angler participation in an effort to predict outcomes for the US summer flounder (fluke) fishery under alternative climate scenarios, and inform adaptive management approaches. The mid-Atlantic coastal waters of the US have experienced significant warming in recent years, resulting in noticeable pole-ward...
The data represent 48-state USA weather and climate data (both site and gridded), biological phenology (developmental) models, combined with photoperiod response (diapause inducing sensitivity to short daylengths). The example data sets are specific to a single insect biological control organism (a leaf beetle introduced to control purple loosestrife, an invasive...
