Climate is a core aspect of a species' niche that is frequently incorporated into species
distribution models (SDMs). The proliferation of readily accessible climate data is stimulating …

Invasion risks may be influenced either negatively or positively by climate change,
depending on the species. These can be predicted with species distribution models, but …

The application of data science (DS) techniques has become increasingly essential in
various fields, including epidemiology and climatology in agricultural production systems. In …

Premnotrypes is a weevil species complex that occurs in the high Andes of South America.
Most of the species are considered to be crop pests, associated with potato production, thus …

Bioclimatic variables (BCVs) are the most widely used predictors within the field of species
distribution modeling, but recent studies imply that BCVs alone are not sufficient to describe …
