Ecological niche models are valuable tools to support conservation decision-making. Still,
they are sensitive to the study area spatial extent. Ecologically plastic species ranging over …

Conservation planning at broad spatial scales facilitates coherence between local land
management and objectives set at the state or provincial level. Habitat suitability models are …

Declining species richness is a global concern; however, the coarse-scale metrics used at
regional or landscape levels might not accurately represent the important habitat …

Divergent habitat utilization and niche partitioning can cause high degrees of ecological
specialization even in generalist species. For example, sex‐specific specialization results in …

Habitat connectivity is crucial for the conservation of species restricted to fragmented
populations within human-dominated landscapes. However, identifying habitat connectivity …

Mammals are important components of biodiversity that have been drastically and rapidly
impacted by climate change, habitat loss, and anthropogenic pressure. Understanding key …

Animals select habitat resources at multiple spatial scales. Thus, explicit attention to scale
dependency in species–habitat relationships is critical to understand the habitat suitability …

The use of ecological niche models to predict how future climate change may impact habitat
suitability is a critical component of imperiled species management. These models allow for …

Ecological niche modeling has become an increasingly important tool to address issues in
many fields of basic and applied ecology. The ecological niche space occupied across the …

Animal habitat selection analyses often rely on comparisons of habitat use and availability to
infer selection. Random locations are commonly used to assess availability despite …
