On weather affecting to Brown plant hopper invasion using an Agent-based model
Résumé
In this paper, a new agent-based model is proposed to model and simulate visually growth and invasion of brown plant hoppers in different localities and at different times under effects of weather conditions such as temperature, humidity, rainfall and wind factors. The results from simulation are validated with light traps data collected in communes in the Mekong Delta region and show that brown plant hoppers life is affected by weather.
