ABSTRACT

Simple Summary Current methods for studying climate change impacts on plants and pollinators fall into two categories: one uses species distribution models (SDMs) to create habitat suitability maps, while the other constructs interaction matrices to estimate changes in plant–pollinator networks by removing species. The first approach is limited as it analyzes species separately, without accounting for the effects of climate change within networks. The second lacks accuracy due to the arbitrary species removal without understanding actual distribution shifts. To address these gaps, we introduced an innovative method that involves generating binary climate suitability maps and assessing species co-overlapping in a geographic matrix to understand potential interactions.
