Modeling the ecology and evolution of biodiversity: Biogeographical cradles, museums, and graves [PDF]
, 2018 Individual processes shaping geographical patterns of biodiversity are increasingly understood, but their complex interactions on broad spatial and temporal scales remain beyond the reach of analytical models and traditional experiments.

Biologically informed ecological niche models for an example pelagic, highly mobile species [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Although pelagic seabirds are broadly recognised as indicators of the health of marine systems, numerous gaps exist in knowledge of their at-sea distributions at the species level.

Ecological Niche Modelling of Bank Voles in Western Europe [PDF]
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2013 The bank vole (Myodes glareolus) is the natural host of Puumala virus (PUUV) in vast areas of Europe. PUUV is one of the hantaviruses which are transmitted to humans by infected rodents. PUUV causes a general mild form of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) called nephropathia epidemica (NE).

Niche shifts after long-distance dispersal events in bipolar sedges (Carex, Cyperaceae) [PDF]
, 2017 PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Bipolar species represent the greatest biogeographical disjunction on Earth, raising many questions about the colonization and adaptive processes behind such striking distribution.

PLoS ONE, 2020 The Amazonian and Atlantic Forest share several organisms that are currently isolated but were continuously distributed during the Quaternary period. As both biomes are under different climatic regimes, paleoclimatic events may have modulated species ...

Ecological niche differentiation between Acanthodactylus micropholis and A. khamirensis (Sauria: Lacertidae) in southern Iran [PDF]
Zoologia (Curitiba), 2019 Acanthodactylus micropholis Heidari, Rastegar-Pouyani, Rastegar-Pouyani & Rajabizadeh, 2013 and A. khamirensis Blanford, 1874 are genetically and morphologically distinct, but their ecological differentiation has not previously been evaluated ...

Ecological niche of plant pathogens [PDF]
Annals of Forest Research, 2011 Disease ecology is a new approach to the understanding of the spread and dynamics of pathogens in natural and man-made environments. Defining and describing the ecological niche of the pathogens is one of the major tasks for ecological theory, as well as

Interpretation of Models of Fundamental Ecological Niches and Species’ Distributional Areas [PDF]
, 2005 Ecological niche modeling?that is, estimation of the dimensions of fundamental ecological niches of species?to predict their geographic distributions is increasingly being employed in systematics, ecology, conservation, public health, etc. This technique

Ecological niche transferability using invasive species as a case study.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Species distribution modeling is widely applied to predict invasive species distributions and species range shifts under climate change. Accurate predictions depend upon meeting the assumption that ecological niches are conserved, i.e., spatially or ...
