A Field Validated Model of Temporal Variability in Oyster Habitat Suitability

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
This work presents the development and validation of a spatially and temporally variable oyster habitat suitability model for the western Mississippi Sound, northern Gulf of Mexico. In the work, we (1) develop an oyster habitat suitability model based on

A Multi‐Factor Habitat Suitability Model for Asian Elephants in the Greater Mekong Subregion: Effects of Vegetation and Climate [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
The habitat suitability of the endangered Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) is commonly assessed using climatic and topographic variables, whereas food‐plant resources are rarely incorporated explicitly into regional‐scale species distribution models ...

Assessing habitat-suitability models with a virtual species [PDF]

Ecological Modelling, 2001
This paper compares two habitat-suitability assessing methods, the Ecological Niche Factor Analysis (ENFA) and the Generalised Linear Model (GLM), to see how well they cope with three different scenarios. The main difference between these two analyses is that GLM is based on species presence/absence data while ENFA on presence data only.

A hybrid CART-GAMs model to evaluate benthic macroinvertebrate habitat suitability in the Pearl River Estuary, China

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Benthic macroinvertebrates are an important part of the aquatic food chain in estuaries. Therefore, understanding their associated habitat requirements is critical in maintaining estuarine ecosystem stability, which has until now been evaluated using ...

Habitat Suitability Based Models for Ungulate Roadkill Prognosis [PDF]

Animals, 2020
Roads do not only have a detrimental effect on nature (fragmenting habitats, isolating populations and threatening biodiversity), but the increasing numbers of wildlife-vehicle collisions are also a direct threat to humans and property. Therefore, mitigation measures should be placed with respect to animal distribution and movements across the roads ...

Pemodelan Spasial Kesesuaian Habitat Elang Jawa (Nisaetus bartelsi) di Taman Nasional Bromo Tengger Semeru (Spatial Modeling of Javan Hawk-Eagle (Nisaetus bartelsi) Habitat Suitability in Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park)

Jurnal Sylva Lestari, 2021
Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park (TNBTS) is a conservation area as the habitat of endemic species in Java Island, such as the Javan hawk-eagle (Nisaetus bartelsi).

Macroscale climate change predictions have little influence on landscape-scale habitat suitability

Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Although a few studies have addressed the combined effects of climate change and habitat loss on biodiversity at a regional scale, the extent to which climate change will impact species occurrence at the landscape scale remains unclear.

Modeling Distribution and Habitat Suitability for the Snow Leopard in Bhutan [PDF]

Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2021
The snow leopard (Panthera uncia) is one of the world's most elusive felids. In Bhutan, which is one of the 12 countries where the species still persists, reliable information on its distribution and habitat suitability is lacking, thus impeding effective conservation planning for the species.

The Gulf toadfish goes south: assessing the potential habitat suitability of Opsanus beta in response to climate change

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2023
Climate change can directly influence invasive species range, and may reflect in greater habitat suitability, consequently increasing losses in native biodiversity.

Global habitat suitability models of terrestrial mammals [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2011
Detailed large-scale information on mammal distribution has often been lacking, hindering conservation efforts. We used the information from the 2009 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as a baseline for developing habitat suitability models for 5027 out of 5330 known terrestrial mammal species, based on their habitat relationships.
