Abstract
As a base for a prognosis system to control the codling moth (Cydia pomonella), a mathematical model to simulate its population dynamics is presented.
The dynamics are described as a system of ordinary differential equations.
In a submodel for the temperature dependent development of the pest, a climate dependent reproduction model is inserted.
Simulations of the development model describe qualitatively the phenology of the pest with and without the use of a pesticide.
A climate dependent model for the flight of the male moths before copulation was fitted to pheromone trap data; it shows a strong temperature- but no significant humidity-dependence.
