- Method / resource The species distribution models for S. foetida showed high accuracy, with mean AUC of 0.98.
- Association The probability of occurrence of S. foetida correlates positively with maximum temperature of the warmest month, mean temperature of the wettest quarter and precipitation of the wettest month.
- Observation The model gave a suitability area for S. foetida of 4,744,653 km2, 37.86% of the total study area.
- Observation Low suitability covered 14.12% of the total study area for S. foetida.
- Observation Moderate suitability covered 8.71% of the total study area for S. foetida.
- Observation High suitability covered 15.02% of the total study area for S. foetida.
- Observation Under SSP1-2.6 for 2041-2060, S. foetida showed a slight loss of 0.24% in potential distribution.
