Ecological Applications 25:1506–1517. http://dx.doi.org/10.1890/14-2071.1The data represent 48-state USA weather and climate data (both site and gridded), biological phenology (developmental) models, combined with photoperiod response (diapause inducing sensitivity to short daylengths). The example data sets are specific to a single insect biological control organism (a leaf beetle introduced to control purple loosestrife, an invasive weed), but the methods and ideas are relevant to many, or perhaps most, insects as well as many plants and other invertebrates. A metadata file is included to describe how the data was developed and used for the publication they are associated with
