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 ...

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

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.

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.

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.

Habitat suitability modelling and niche theory [PDF]
Journal of Applied Ecology, 2008 Summary 1. The concept of the ecological niche relates a set of environmental variables to the fitness of species, while habitat suitability models (HSMs) relate environmental variables to the likelihood of occurrence of the species. In spite of this relationship, the concepts are weakly linked in the literature, and there is a strong need for better ...

Ecological Indicators, 2023 The red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis) is a rare waterfowl species that is sensitive to environmental changes in its habitat selection; as such it effectively reflects the variation in wetland landscapes.
