Biodiversity conservation faces a methodological conundrum: Biodiversity measurement
often relies on species, most of which are rare at various scales, especially prone to …

The influence of climate on the distribution of taxa has been extensively investigated in the
last two decades through Habitat Suitability Models (HSMs). In this context, the Worldclim …

The aim of the current work is to compare susceptibility maps of landslides produced using
machine learning techniques ie multilayer perception neural nets (MLP), kernel logistic …

Aim China has dozens of well‐recognized biodiversity hotspots, but many more potential
areas have not been estimated thoroughly, which is unfavourable for biodiversity …

Aims Human‐induced pressures such as deforestation cause anthropogenic range
contractions (ARCs). Such contractions present dynamic distributions that may engender …

Aim A limitation of species distribution models (SDMs) is that species with low sample sizes
are difficult to model. Yet, it is often important to know the habitat associations of poorly …

Studies that question important conceptual and methodological aspects of the field of
ecological niche modeling (and species distribution modeling) have cast doubts on whether …

Environmental variation within a species' range can create contrasting selective pressures,
leading to divergent selection and novel adaptations. The conservation value of populations …

Climate warming threatens the future sustainability of mountains, and tropical mountains are
particularly threatened with loss of biodiversity and associated ecosystem services …
