Demand for models in biodiversity assessments is rising, but which models are adequate for
the task? We propose a set of best-practice standards and detailed guidelines enabling …

Plants are a hyperdiverse clade that plays a key role in maintaining ecological and
evolutionary processes as well as human livelihoods. Biases, gaps and uncertainties in …

This book introduces the key stages of niche-based habitat suitability model building,
evaluation and prediction required for understanding and predicting future patterns of …

The aim of the ecospat package is to make available novel tools and methods to support
spatial analyses and modeling of species niches and distributions in a coherent workflow …

The ecological niche is a key concept for elucidating patterns of species distributions and
developing strategies for conserving biodiversity. However, recent times are seeing a …

生态位模型是利用物种已知的分布数据和相关环境变量, 根据一定的算法来推算物种的生态需求
, 然后将运算结果投射至不同的空间和时间中来预测物种的实际分布和潜在分布. 近年来 …

Alien invasive plants pose a threat to global biodiversity and the cost of control continues to
rise. Early detection and prediction of potential risk areas are essential to minimize …

Aim To synthesize the species distribution modelling (SDM) literature to inform which
variables have been used in MaxEnt models for different taxa and to quantify how frequently …

Assessing whether the climatic niche of a species may change between different geographic
areas or time periods has become increasingly important in the context of ongoing global …

Climate change is altering phenology and distributions of many species and further changes
are projected. Can species physiologically adapt to climate warming? We analyse thermal …
