Locusta migratoria (L.) (Orthoptera) in a warming world: unravelling the ecological consequences of climate change using GIS [PDF]

Biodiversity Data Journal
The migratory locust, Locusta migratoria (L.), a significant grasshopper species known for its ability to form large swarms and cause extensive damage to crops and vegetation, is subject to the influence of climate change.

ENMTools: a toolbox for comparative studies of environmental niche models [PDF]

Ecography, 2010
We present software that facilitates quantitative comparisons of environmental niche models (ENMs). Our software quantifies similarity of ENMs generated using the program Maxent and uses randomization tests to compare observed similarity to that expected under different null hypotheses.

Invasion success of a global avian invader is explained by within-taxon niche structure and association with humans in the native range [PDF]

, 2015
Aim To mitigate the threat invasive species pose to ecosystem functioning, reli- able risk assessment is paramount. Spatially explicit predictions of invasion risk obtained through bioclimatic envelope models calibrated with native species distribution ...

Modelling the environmental niche of a declining farmland bird species [PDF]

Italian Journal of Zoology, 2012
Abstract Species distribution models are used increasingly in both applied and theoretical research to understand attributes of species' environmental requirements and to predict how species are distributed. However, recent advances in species distribution modelling have shown that the use of a single modelling method can lead to biased conclusions ...

Mechanistic and Correlative Models of Ecological Niches [PDF]

, 2015
The suite of factors that drives where and under what conditions a species occurs has become the focus of intense research interest. Three general categories of methods have emerged by which researchers address questions in this area ...

Habitat functionality: Integrating environmental and geographic space in niche modeling for conservation planning

Ecology, 2023
AbstractNiche modeling is typically used to assess the effects of anthropogenic land use and climate change on species distributions and to inform spatial conservation planning. These models focus on the suitability of local biotic and abiotic conditions for a species in environmental space (E‐space).

Distribution Pattern and Climate Preferences of the Representatives of the Cosmopolitan Genus Sirthenea Spinola, 1840 (Heteroptera: Reduviidae: Peiratinae). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The main goal of this study was to predict, through the use of GIS tool as ecological niche modelling, potentially suitable ecological niche and defining the conditions of such niche for the representatives of the cosmopolitan genus Sirthenea.

Differentiated historical demography and ecological niche forming present distribution and genetic structure in coexisting two salamanders (Amphibia, Urodela, Hynobiidae) in a small island, Japan [PDF]

PeerJ, 2022
Background The climatic oscillations in the Quaternary period considerably shaped the distribution and population genetic structure of organisms. Studies on the historical dynamics of distribution and demography not only reflect the current geographic ...

Formation of iron sulfide at faecal pellets and other microniches within suboxic surface sediment. [PDF]

, 2010
Faecal pellet deposition and bioturbation may lead to heterogeneously distributed particles of localized highly reactive organic matter (microniches) being present below the oxygen penetration depth.
