Almost all climate change studies of plants and animals adopt an 'equilibrium
assumption'that analyses of natural distributions provide reliable estimates of species …

This paper examines progress made with species distribution modelling (SDM) for trees
under climate change. Following brief background information, the main focus is on …

ABSTRACT Aim Species distribution models (SDMs) based on current species ranges
underestimate the potential distribution when projected in time and/or space. A multi …

Bioclimate envelope models have been widely used to illustrate the discrepancy between
current species distributions and their potential habitat under climate change. However, the …

Estimating climatic conditions within the potential range of different species is important, as it
can assist evaluating their ability to tolerate climate change. Potential range was analysed …

Methods used to predict shifts in species' ranges because of climate change commonly
involve species distribution (niche) modelling using climatic variables, future values of which …

Modelling strategies for predicting the potential impacts of climate change on the natural
distribution of species have often focused on the characterization of a species' bioclimate …

Recent studies suggest that species distribution models (SDM s) based on fine‐scale
climate data may provide markedly different estimates of climate‐change impacts than …

This study estimates the present and future distribution potential of 12 thermophilic and rare
tree species for Europe based on climate-soil sensitive species distribution models (SDMs) …

Key message Climate envelope analysis of nine tree species shows that Fagus sylvatica L.
and Picea abies H. Karst could lose 58% and 40% of their current distribution range …
