Species Distribution Modeling for Machine Learning Practitioners: A Review [PDF]

open access: yesThe Compass, 2021
Conservation science depends on an accurate understanding of what’s happening in a given ecosystem. How many species live there? What is the makeup of the population? How is that changing over time?

Species distribution modelling supports the study of past, present and future biogeographies

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, 2023
Species distribution modelling (SDM), also called environmental or ecological niche modelling, has developed over the last 30 years as a widely used tool used in core areas of biogeography including historical biogeography, studies of diversity patterns,

A quantitative review of abundance-based species distribution models

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
The contributions of species to ecosystem functions or services depend not only on their presence in a given community, but also on their local abundance.

Joint species distribution modelling with the r‐package Hmsc

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Joint Species Distribution Modelling (JSDM) is becoming an increasingly popular statistical method for analysing data in community ecology. Hierarchical Modelling of Species Communities (HMSC) is a general and flexible framework for fitting JSDMs.

A standard protocol for reporting species distribution models

open access: yesEcography, 2020
Species distribution models (SDMs) constitute the most common class of models across ecology, evolution and conservation. The advent of ready-to-use software pack - ages and increasing availability of digital geoinformation have considerably assisted

Testing whether ensemble modelling is advantageous for maximising predictive performance of species distribution models

open access: yes, 2020
Predictive performance is important to many applications of species distribution models (SDMs). The SDM ‘ensemble’ approach, which combines predictions across different modelling methods, is believed to improve predictive performance, and is used in many

Wild dogs at stake: deforestation threatens the only Amazon endemic canid, the short-eared dog (Atelocynus microtis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The persistent high deforestation rate and fragmentation of the Amazon forests are the main threats to their biodiversity. To anticipate and mitigate these threats, it is important to understand and predict how species respond to the rapidly changing ...

The Risk for Novel and Disappearing Environmental Conditions in the Baltic Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Future climate biogeochemical projections indicate large changes in the ocean with environmental conditions not experienced at present referred to as novel, or may even disappear. These climate-induced changes will most likely affect species distribution

Modelling the distribution of the invasive Roesel’s bushcricket (Metrioptera roeselii) in a fragmented landscape [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The development of conservation strategies to mitigate the impact of invasive species requires knowledge of the species ecology and distribution. This is, however, often lacking as collecting biological data may be both time-consuming and resource ...

SDMtune: An R package to tune and evaluate species distribution models

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Balancing model complexity is a key challenge of modern computational ecology, particularly so since the spread of machine learning algorithms. Species distribution models are often implemented using a wide variety of machine learning algorithms that can
