The cumulative niche approach: A framework to assess the performance of ecological niche model projections [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Ecological Niche Models (ENMs) are often used to project species distributions within alien ranges and in future climatic scenarios. However, ENMs depend on species‐environment equilibrium, which may be absent for actively expanding species. We present a

Ecological Niche Modeling: An Introduction for Veterinarians and Epidemiologists [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
Most infectious diseases in animals are not distributed randomly. Instead, diseases in livestock and wildlife are predictable in terms of the geography, time, and species affected. Ecological niche modeling approaches have been crucial to the advancement

Collinearity in ecological niche modeling: Confusions and challenges [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
AbstractEcological niche models are widely used in ecology and biogeography. Maxent is one of the most frequently used niche modeling tools, and many studies have aimed to optimize its performance. However, scholars have conflicting views on the treatment of predictor collinearity in Maxent modeling.
