description: Projected current and future climate suitability under RCP 2.6, 6.0 &amp; 8.5. Figures S3-S8 &amp; Table S2. Figure S3. Current and future (RCP 2.6) projected climate suitability for tick species in the western Palearctic. Each row corresponds to a tick species: A: Ixodes ricinus; B: Rhipicephalus annulatus; C: Dermacentor marginatus; D: Haemaphysalis punctata. Columns correspond to 40-year temporal averages up to and including: 1: 2010; 2: 2050; 3: 2098. Figures in column 1 represent the average suitability derived from Maxent and MD SDMs based on observed climate; columns 2 and 3 contain suitability averaged across Maxent and MD SDMs produced from four GCMs following RCP 2.6. Values range from 0 (unsuitable) to 1 (highly suitable). Figure S4. Current and future (RCP 2.6) projected climate suitability for tick species in the western Palearctic. Each row corresponds to a tick species: E: Haemaphysalis sulcata; F: Hyalomma marginatum; G: Rhipicephalus bursa. Columns correspond to 40-year temporal averages up to and including: 1: 2010; 2: 2050; 3: 2098. Figures in column 1 represent the average suitability derived from Maxent and MD SDMs based on observed climate; columns 2 and 3 contain suitability averaged across Maxent and MD SDMs produced from four GCMs following RCP 2.6. Values range from 0 (unsuitable) to 1 (highly suitable). Figure S5. Current and future (RCP 6.0) projected climate suitability for tick species in the western Palearctic. Each row corresponds to a tick species: A: Ixodes ricinus; B: Rhipicephalus annulatus; C: Dermacentor marginatus; D: Haemaphysalis punctata. Columns correspond to 40-year temporal averages up to and including: 1: 2010; 2: 2050; 3: 2098. Figures in column 1 represent the average suitability derived from Maxent and MD SDMs based on observed climate; columns 2 and 3 contain suitability averaged across Maxent and MD SDMs produced from four GCMs following RCP 6.0. Values range from 0 (unsuitable) to 1 (highly suitable). Figure S6. Current and future (RCP 6.0) projected climate suitability for tick species in the western Palearctic. Each row corresponds to a tick species: E: Haemaphysalis sulcata; F: Hyalomma marginatum; G: Rhipicephalus bursa. Columns correspond to 40-year temporal averages up to and including: 1: 2010; 2: 2050; 3: 2098. Figures in column 1 represent the average suitability derived from Maxent and MD SDMs based on observed climate; columns 2 and 3 contain suitability averaged across Maxent and MD SDMs produced from four GCMs following RCP 6.0. Values range from 0 (unsuitable) to 1 (highly suitable). Figure S7. Current and future (RCP 8.5) projected climate suitability for tick species in the western Palearctic. Each row corresponds to a tick species: A: Ixodes ricinus; B: Rhipicephalus annulatus; C: Dermacentor marginatus; D: Haemaphysalis punctata. Columns correspond to 40-year temporal averages up to and including: 1: 2010; 2: 2050; 3: 2098. Figures in column 1 represent the average suitability derived from Maxent and MD SDMs based on observed climate; columns 2 and 3 contain suitability averaged across Maxent and MD SDMs produced from four GCMs following RCP 8.5. Values range from 0 (unsuitable) to 1 (highly suitable). Figure S8. Current and future (RCP 8.5) projected climate suitability for tick species in the western Palearctic. Each row corresponds to a tick species: E: Haemaphysalis sulcata; F: Hyalomma marginatum; G: Rhipicephalus bursa. Columns correspond to 40-year temporal averages up to and including: 1: 2010; 2: 2050; 3: 2098. Figures in column 1 represent the average suitability derived from Maxent and MD SDMs based on observed climate; columns 2 and 3 contain suitability averaged across Maxent and MD SDMs produced from four GCMs following RCP 8.5. Values range from 0 (unsuitable) to 1 (highly suitable). Table S2: Similarity between current and future projected climate suitability for seven tick species. Schoener's D statistic represents the degree of overlap between climate suitability maps, ranging from 0 (no overlap) to 1 (complete overlap). Smallest values therefore indicate least overlap and so the greatest change between current and future projections of climate suitability. Average climate suitability produced by Maxent and MD SDMs for the 40-year period up to and including 2010 has been compared with climate suitability averaged across both SDMs over future 40-year periods up to and including 2050 and 2098 under all four RCP climates.
