Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2015 The paper presents models of potential geographical distribution of Xanthoparmelia delisei, X. loxodes, and X. verruculifera in Central Europe. The models were developed with MaxEnt (maximum entropy algorithm) based on 224 collection localities and ...

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Climate driven species’ range shifts may interfere with existing protected area (PA) networks, resulting in a mismatch between places where species are currently protected and places where they can thrive in the future.

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 AbstractEcological Niche Models (ENMs) are often used to project species distributions within alien ranges and in future climatic scenarios. However, ENMs depend on species‐environment equilibrium, which may be absent for actively expanding species. We present a novel framework to estimate whether species have reached environmental equilibrium in their

Acacia dealbata invasion in Chile: Surprises from climatic niche and species distribution models
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Aim Tree invasions are a threat to biodiversity conservation, and although it is hard to predict the future spread of invasive tree species, there are tools available which could allow some estimations.

Modeling renal progenitors – defining the niche [PDF]
Differentiation, 2016 Significant recent advances in methodologies for the differentiation of pluripotent stem cells to renal progenitors as well as the definition of niche conditions for sustaining those progenitors have dramatically enhanced our understanding of their biology and developmental programing, prerequisites for establishing viable approaches to renal ...

Climate change‐induced distributional change of medicinal and aromatic plants in the Nepal Himalaya
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) contribute to human well‐being via health and economic benefits. Nepal has recorded 2331 species of MAPs, of which around 300 species are currently under trade.

Existing Climate Change Will Lead to Pronounced Shifts in the Diversity of Soil Prokaryotes
mSystems, 2018 Soil bacteria are key to ecosystem function and maintenance of soil fertility. Leveraging associations of current geographic distributions of bacteria with historic climate, we predict that soil bacterial diversity will increase across the majority (∼75%)

Acta Botânica BrasílicaWe experimentally evaluated how different temperatures affect germination of individual seedlings of Dipteryx alata, and estimated the impact of climate change on the species using ecological niche modeling. A total of 240 seeds were randomly distributed
