Climate Vulnerability Assessment: Cattle Tick

The **Climate Vulnerability Assessment** was designed to provide an overview of the impact of future climate change on all stages of production for the commodities and biosecurity risks assessed. The project used multicriteria analysis (MCA) models to produce assessments for the commodities and biosecurity risks in a consistent and comparable way, and a framework was developed to provide a rigorous, flexible and transparent process for assessing vulnerabilities and opportunities to climate change. Details of the approach and the climate data used in the assessments can be found in the [Methodology Report](https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/climate/climate-vulnerability-assessment/publications-and-reports) which also details model exclusions and assumptions.\r\n\r\nAssessments were undertaken on commodities grouped into 6 nodes: *Horticulture and Viticulture*, *Broadacre Cropping*, *Forestry*, *Extensive Livestock*, *Marine Fisheries*, as well as for a set of biosecurity risks related to these primary industry sectors. The [Summary Report](https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/climate/climate-vulnerability-assessment/publications-and-reports) gives details of the chosen commodities and biosecurity risks and summarises the high-level results.\r\n\r\nResults Reports for each commodity and biosecurity risk are being released. Visit the [project's web pages](https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/climate/climate-vulnerability-assessment) to access these reports and for further information.\r\n\r\nThis dataset contains maps of modelled climate suitability for the **cattle tick** model in the Biosecurity Risks node of the DPIRD Climate Vulnerability Assessment. Maps are provided (in GeoTIFF format) for each element of the model: the climate suitability for each month, climate suitability maps for each phenophase and also for each phenophase/climate variable combination in the model. Data is provided for each of the eight global climate models (GCMs) used in the project, as well as the climate suitability derived from historical observations, along with the ensemble median for each map.

**气候脆弱性评估（Climate Vulnerability Assessment）**旨在全面梳理未来气候变化对本次评估所覆盖商品的全生产流程，以及各类生物安全风险的影响。本项目采用多准则分析（multicriteria analysis, MCA）模型，以统一可比的方式对各类商品及生物安全风险开展评估，并构建了一套严谨、灵活且透明的框架，用于评估气候变化带来的脆弱性与发展机遇。本评估所采用的方法细节与气候数据，可参阅[方法学报告](https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/climate/climate-vulnerability-assessment/publications-and-reports)，该报告同时详述了模型的排除项与假设前提。

本次评估针对划分为六大评估类别的商品展开：*园艺与葡萄栽培*、*大田作物种植*、*林业*、*粗放型畜牧*、*海洋渔业*，同时涵盖与这些第一产业门类相关的一系列生物安全风险。[概况报告](https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/climate/climate-vulnerability-assessment/publications-and-reports)详述了选定的商品与生物安全风险，并汇总了高层次评估结果。

各商品及生物安全风险对应的结果报告已陆续发布。请访问[项目网页](https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/climate/climate-vulnerability-assessment)获取此类报告及更多相关信息。

本数据集包含DPIRD气候脆弱性评估中生物安全风险类别下**牛蜱（cattle tick）**模型的经建模得到的气候适宜性分布图。本次提供的地图采用GeoTIFF格式，涵盖模型的所有构成要素：各月度气候适宜性结果、各物候期的气候适宜性分布图，以及模型中各物候期与气候变量组合对应的适宜性分布图。数据涵盖本项目所采用的8个全球气候模型（global climate models, GCMs）的计算结果，以及基于历史观测数据推导得到的气候适宜性数据，同时附带每张分布图的集合中位数结果。
