Dan Borchert- Entomologist CPHST/PERAL Raleigh, NC
The Purpose of NAPPFAST • To assist the CAPS Program determine where and when to survey for invasive pest species • To provide information on pests (potential distribution, etc.) for risk assessment purposes • To assist APHIS by providing relevant information in Emergency Response situations
The Development of NAPPFAST • Idea originated at NCSU: Dr. Jack Bailey- method for forecasting peanut diseases in NC and the flexible template for disease modeling- 1990’s • Dan Fieselmann and Glenn Fowler worked with Dr. Bailey for several years on project development • Roger Magarey developed the connection between ZedX Inc and NAPPFAST • Dan Borchert joins the NAPPFAST Team
NAPPFAST System Overview • Internet-based Pest Prediction System • Biological model (Degree day, Disease Infection, or Multi-function) templates paired with large climate database • Produce geo-referenced output maps • Designed to assist pest survey detection efforts: predict when and where
Development of Risk Maps • Risk maps developed for CAPS program • Utilize host and biology information to create risk maps • Maps are available for use in development of survey plans • These are the recognized maps for use in the CAPS program • Can be found at www.nappfast.org
Primary Hosts Acreage Divided by Acres per County Secondary Hosts Acreage Divided by Acres per County + *0.34 *0.66 Relative Proportion of Hosts per County 0= No Hosts per county 5= 0.05-0.075 of each acre in that county is composed of host crop 10= 0.75-1.0 of each acre in that county is composed of host crop

NAPPFAST Model Creation Folder system, but less information More Complex More applicable for extensive users NAPPFAST-MAPVIEW Map Viewer Folder System with details Easy to Navigate More applicable for casual users NAPPFAST
NAPPFAST Map View • Easy, rapid site navigation designed for users interested in quick access to information • Contains series of “Canned Probability Maps” for approx. 30 pests • User can zoom in, add commodity overlays, county outlines, interstates and cities to map • Converts the custom map to PDF for easy printing • Map View site can be automatically accessed through the GPDD for coincidental pests Username:aphismap Password:maps2004
NAPPFAST MAPVIEWImportant Points • What models are used to make the maps? • What organisms can be modeled? • What are the different types of maps? • Why use different types of maps? • How do I read and interpret the maps?
NAPPFAST MAPVIEWImportant Points • What models are used to make the predictive maps in NAPPFAST? • Degree Day • Infection • Generic
Temp. Dev. Degree Day Model: Theory • “Phenology and development of most organisms follow a temperature dependent time scale” (Allen 1976) • Attempts to integrate temperature and time started 250 + years ago • Development is widely believed to follow a sigmoid shape
Degree Day Model: Theory • Organisms have base developmental temperature- minimum temperature below which no development occurs • Organisms have set number of units to complete development - physiological time: measured in developmental units (DU) or degree days (DD) • Parameters established from lab or field studies
Degree Day Model • Example: Light Brown Apple Moth base temperature 7.5 C requires ~640 DD to complete development (egg, larvae, pupae, adult to egg) • Degree days are typically calculated from average of high and low temperature for a 24 hour period above the base temperature
Degree Day Model Light Brown Apple Moth: Base temperature 7.5 C 640 DD for generation development If average daily temp was 11C: 3.5 DD (11-7.5) are accumulated and it would take 182 days at that temperature to complete development If average daily temp was 20C: 12.5 DD (20-7.5) are accumulated and it would take 51.2 days at that temperature to complete development
NAPPFAST MAPVIEWImportant Points • What models are used to make the maps in NAPPFAST? • Degree Day • Infection
Disease Infection Model • Plant pathologist describe interactions between pathogen, host and environmental conditions as the disease triangle.
Infection is often the rate limiting step in an epidemic because it requires moisture which is often limited in terrestrial environments Infection can be modeled by a temperature /moisture response function - a mathematical function that describes the response of an organism to temperature and moisture Disease infection model
Disease Infection Parameters • Tmin = Min. temperature for infection, oC, • Tmax = Max. temperature for infection, oC, • Topt = Opt. temperature for infection, oC, • Wmin = Minimum wetness duration requirement, h Parameters established in laboratory studies
Temperature response function Low Topt High Topt
Temperature moisture response function Low Topt High Wmin High Topt Low Wmin
NAPPFAST MAPVIEWImportant Points • What models are used to make the maps in NAPPFAST? • Degree Day • Infection • Generic- Multi-function Model
Multi-function Model • Allows for construction of many different models using simple logical and mathematical equations: (X>A, X and Y, X or Y, X and (Y or Z), X≥A and X≤B, A* exp(B * X), etc.) • Some examples used to date are: temperature exclusions (high and or low lethal temperatures), frost free days, and emergence dates
NAPPFAST MAPVIEWImportant Points • What models are used to make the predictive maps? • What organisms can be modeled? • Which model is used?
Modeling- Point to Consider “ A model is always wrong, but it can help you see the truth” Dr. Fred Gould William Neal Reynolds Professor North Carolina State University Entomology Department

Map Types: History • History Maps- A snap shot of information Provides detailed information on the pest for the period of time specified (day, month, or year) Do not provide information about other years occurrence Are often used for validation of models or examining a specific years output

Map Types: Probability • Probability- Utilizes data from multiple years Information is less detailed, but provides insight into frequency of occurrence through many years for a specific event
Frequency of Occurrence 0 2 2 4 6 4 6 8 10 8 JB Watch Observation Probability Maps • Allow for spatial examination of a particular stage through multiple years for a specified time period • i.e. Where is the adult stage most likely to be occurring during the second week (8-14) in June?
