Summary
These models simulate the biological and eco-physiological processes at the basis of population dynamics, both in space and time. They quantify the potential population abundance and geographical distribution based on the mechanistic understanding of their life history traits (e.g. development, mortality, reproduction).
Detailed Call Description
The objective of the call is to identify organisations that EFSA can entrust with the development and/or integration, and deployment of new or existing generic models within the EFSA cloud-based Databricks platform. These includes:
- Lot 1: Generic physiologically-based insect population dynamic models, and
- Lot 2: Generic correlative and process-based models
These models, combined with data on host plant availability, will support EFSA in assessing the risk of potential establishment for plant pests and pathogens in the EU under current and future climate conditions.
