Comparison of habitat suitability models using different habitat suitability evaluation methods

Ecological Engineering, 2014
Abstract When simulating the habitat suitability for a species or a community, the selection of the habitat evaluation index is still a matter of debate. This study examined Chinese sturgeon spawning grounds in the Yangtze River as an example. The water level and velocity were simulated by a two-dimensional hydraulic model.

Landscape Habitat Suitability Index Software

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 2007
ABSTRACT Habitat suitability index (HSI) models are traditionally used to evaluate habitat quality for wildlife at a local scale. Rarely have such models incorporated spatial relationships of habitat components.

SETTING RELIABILITY BOUNDS ON HABITAT SUITABILITY INDICES

Ecological Applications, 2001
We expressed quantitative and qualitative uncertainties in suitability index functions as triangular distributions and used the mechanics of fuzzy numbers to solve for the distribution of uncertainty around the habitat suitability indices derived from them. We applied this approach to a habitat model for the Florida Scrub-Jay.

Species detection vs. habitat suitability: Are we biasing habitat suitability models with remotely sensed data?

Ecological Modelling, 2012
a b s t r a c t Remotely sensed datasets are increasingly being used to model habitat suitability for a variety of taxa. We review habitat suitability models (HSMs) developed for both plants and animals that include remote sensing predictor variables to determine how these variables could affect model projections.

Accounting for geographic variation in species‐habitat associations during habitat suitability modeling

Ecological Applications, 2022
AbstractRange‐wide species conservation efforts are facilitated by spatially explicit estimates of habitat suitability. However, species‐environment relationships often vary geographically and models assuming geographically constant relationships may result in misleading inferences.
