Projected distribution of climate-based habitat suitability for Ixodes scapularis during three future time periods: the 2020’s, the 2050’s and the 2080’s. The simulation is based on climate change predictions using the Canadian Global Coupled Model (CGCM1) integration forced with anticipated increases in both greenhouse gas and sulfate aerosols. Areas of expansion and contraction from the current distribution of I. scapularis are displayed.
