• Understanding shade effects on coffee pests and diseases has been a challenge because:
The coffee & shade debateContext
Its complex. Direct, interactive, indirect effects
Space & time dependence
Focus on few factor 1 response
Tools to evaluate networks of causal relationships?
The complexity of the system, including spatiotemporal variations, should be addressed in a framework describing direct, indirect & interactive effects.

Example: Environment, shading systems, microclimate & CLR
Context
1
• How are spatiotemporal variations in microclimate and CLR characterized?
2
• What are the indications for the underlying causal relationships of system? Are effects direct, indirect or interactively?

Study Area & Sampling Design
• 49 sample plots• Altitudinal gradient (1100 – 2300 m)• 3 coffee production systems• CLR monitoring (6 weekly) and
microclimate recordings (Temp, RH, hourly) over one growing season (15/16)
CB = Coffee Banana systemCO = Coffee Open systemCT = Coffee Tree system

AnalysisMethod
1
• Selection of microclimatic indicators important in explaining CLR variability: Literature and Sparse partial least square (sPLS)
• Analysis of spatiotemporal variations in microclimate and CLR: Graphical analysis
2
• To estimate direct and indirect effects of altitude and coffee production system on microclimate and CLR: Piecewise structural equation model R

Piecewise structural equation modelResults
CS = Coffee System, CT = Coffee Tree,CO = Coffee Open, RH>95 = Theaccumulated number of hours with theRH > 95 % (May / June), Temp =Average temperature (May / June)
Shipley’s test of d-separation was used to estimate the overallfit of the model (chi-squared test on the Fisher’s C statistic = p >.05, Fisher’s C, AIC = 65.85).
Effects of the environment and production system on CLR are directly or indirectly mediated by microclimate.

ConclusionsConcl.
Spatiotemporal variations in microclimate: There are no consistent altitude or system effects
E.g. At high altitudes, highest humidity was found in unshaded systems (Vapor pressure deficit? Energy balance?)
“Relative humidity and leaf wetness are increased in shaded systems”???
Spatiotemporal variation in microclimate affects spatiotemporal CLR development
Structural equation modelling is a useful framework to describe interaction networks and causal relationships of agroecosystems
