Short-Term and Long-Term Predictions: Is the Green Crab Carcinus maenas a Threat to Antarctica and Southern South America under a Climate-Change Scenario?

Diversity, 2023
Non-native species can have profound implications on the survival of native ones. This is especially true for some invasive crabs, such as the green crab Carcinus maenas, a native species to the Northern Hemisphere that has been introduced into southern ...

Applications of Integrating Wildlife Habitat Suitability and Habitat Potential Models

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2021
ABSTRACT Assessment of habitat suitability provides natural resource managers with insights on the quality and spatial distribution of habitat for wildlife species. However, habitat suitability models only provide information on current habitat parameters, and do not consider changes in habitat due to forest ...

Climate change causes reductions in fish habitat suitability in Loktak Lake, India

Ecological Indicators
Climate change affects ecological processes that govern species distribution patterns at different spatio-temporal scales. To aid in habitat restoration aimed at increasing biodiversity, numerous habitat models were developed and employed in the past. In

Habitat suitability and demography, a time‐dependent relationship

Ecology and Evolution, 2017
AbstractThe habitat suitability index, which reflects spatial variability in species occurrence probability, has been shown to exhibit various contrasting relationships with local demographic performances (survival, productivity) in several species. One proposed explanation for these discrepancies is that the link between the habitat suitability index ...

Modelling potential habitat for snow leopards (Panthera uncia) in Ladakh, India.

PLoS ONE, 2019
The snow leopard Panthera uncia is an elusive species inhabiting some of the most remote and inaccessible tracts of Central and South Asia. It is difficult to determine its distribution and density pattern, which are crucial for developing conservation ...
