On the Importance of Expert‐Informed Variable Selection in Species Distribution Modelling

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Species Distribution Models (SDMs) are widely used to map species distribution and predict future responses to climate change. While the risk of selecting biologically non‐relevant predictors has been raised, numerous studies continue to fully rely on statistical approaches to automatically select predictors solely focusing on climate ...

A globally influential area‐condition metric is a poor proxy for invertebrate biodiversity

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 2529-2540, October 2025.
Our results highlight the need to incorporate factors beyond habitat type and condition into site evaluations, and to complement metric use with species‐based surveys. Abstract There is increasing demand for standardised, easy‐to‐use metrics to assess progress towards achieving biodiversity targets and the effectiveness of ecological compensation ...
