Environmental Niche Modelling with Desktop GARP for Wild Origanum vulgare L . (Lamiaceae) in Armenia

open access: diamondEnvironment. Technology. Resources. Proceedings of the International Scientific and Practical Conference, 2015
Predicting species’ distributions has became one of the significant components of conservation biology in recent years. During the study, GARP (genetic algorithm) has been identified the key modelling technique for determining Origanum vulgare L. (Oregano, Lamiaceae) environmental niche in the Republic of Armenia. For over three consecutive years, from

Does Triatoma brasiliensis occupy the same environmental niche space as Triatoma melanica?

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Triatomines (Hemiptera, Reduviidae) are vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, one of the most important vector-borne diseases in Latin America.

Does size matter? An analysis of the niche width and vulnerability to climate change of fourteen species of the genus Crotalus from North America [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2022
The niche comprises the set of abiotic and biotic environmental conditions in which a species can live. Consequently, those species that present broader niches are expected to be more tolerant to changes in climatic variations than those species that ...

A multi-scale environmental niche model for the Endangered dhole Cuon alpinus [PDF]

open access: goldOryx
Abstract The dhole Cuon alpinus is a large canid that is categorized as Endangered on the IUCN Red List and at risk of global extinction. Information on the spatial distribution of suitable habitat is important for conservation planning but is largely unavailable.

Ecological niches in the polyploid complex Linum suffruticosum s.l.

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionThe high frequency of polyploidy in the evolutionary history of many plant groups occurring in the Mediterranean region is likely a consequence of its dynamic paleogeographic and climatic history.

An ecological niche model that considers local relationships among variables: The Environmental String Model

open access: goldEcosphere
AbstractMany methods have been proposed to model the spatial distribution of a species. While some methods have been specifically designed for this purpose, others are well‐known statistical tools that can be used in many scientific fields. In this paper, I propose a new ecological niche model, called the Environmental String Model (ESM), that is based

Abundance and the Environmental Niche: Environmental Suitability Estimated from Niche Models Predicts the Upper Limit of Local Abundance [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Naturalist, 2009
Ecologists seek to understand patterns of distribution and abundance of species. Studies of distribution often use occurrence data to build models of the environmental niche of a species. Environmental suitability (ES) derived from such models may be used to predict the potential distributions of species.
