A reference business process for ecological niche modelling
Ecological Informatics, 2008 Ecological niche modelling combines species occurrence points with environmental raster layers in order to obtain models for describing the probabilistic distribution of species. The process to generate an ecological niche model is complex. It requires dealing with a large amount of data, use of different software packages for data conversion, for ...

A checklist for maximizing reproducibility of ecological niche models [PDF]
Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2019 AbstractReporting specific modelling methods and metadata is essential to the reproducibility of ecological studies, yet guidelines rarely exist regarding what information should be noted. Here, we address this issue for ecological niche modelling or species distribution modelling, a rapidly developing toolset in ecology used across many aspects of ...

Modelling the ecological niche from functional traits [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2010 The niche concept is central to ecology but is often depicted descriptively through observing associations between organisms and habitats. Here, we argue for the importance of mechanistically modelling niches based on functional traits of organisms and explore the possibilities for achieving this through the integration of three theoretical frameworks:

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

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 AbstractEcological 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 novel framework to estimate whether species have reached environmental equilibrium in their

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).

Ecological Niche Modeling: An Introduction for Veterinarians and Epidemiologists [PDF]
Frontiers 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 of our understanding of diversity and diseases distributions.
