Risk of Phytophthora infection in heathland fragments across Scotland

These spatial layers contain risk factors and overall risk scores, representing relative risk of Phytophthora infection (Phytophthora ramorum and P. kernoviae), for heathland fragments across Scotland. Risk factors include climate suitability, proximity to road and river networks and suitability of habitat for key hosts of Phytophthora and were broadly concurrent with the period between 2007 and 2013. This research was funded by the Scottish Government under research contract CR/2008/55, 'Study of the epidemiology of Phytophthora ramorum and Phytophthora kernoviae in managed gardens and heathlands in Scotland' and involved collaborators from St Andrews University, Science and Advice for Scottish Agriculture (SASA), Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH), Forestry Commission, the Food and Environment Research Agency (FERA) and the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH).

这些空间图层包含风险因子和总体风险评分，代表苏格兰各地石南灌丛片段中疫霉菌（Phytophthora）感染的相对风险（涉及菌种为栎树猝死病菌（Phytophthora ramorum）和kernoviae疫霉菌（P. kernoviae））。风险因子包括气候适宜性、与道路及河流网络的邻近度，以及疫霉菌关键宿主的栖息地适宜性，其时间范围大致与2007年至2013年期间一致。本研究由苏格兰政府资助，研究合同编号为CR/2008/55，项目名称为“苏格兰人工管理花园及石南灌丛中栎树猝死病菌与kernoviae疫霉菌的流行病学研究”，合作单位包括圣安德鲁斯大学、苏格兰农业科学与咨询局（SASA）、苏格兰自然遗产局（SNH）、林业委员会、食品与环境研究局（FERA）以及生态与水文中心（CEH）。
