The Effects of Biome Stability During the Quaternary on Plant Diversity

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
We used machine learning to reconstruct global biome changes over the last 2.6 million years, revealing that tropical forests, deserts, and temperate forests were relatively stable, whereas northern Europe and North America experienced frequent biome shifts due to ice sheet expansions.

Do bioclimate variables improve performance of climate envelope models? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Climate envelope models are widely used to forecast potential effects of climate change on species distributions. A key issue in climate envelope modeling is the selection of predictor variables that most directly influence species.
