Species distribution modeling

Geography Compass, 2010
Abstract The use of species distribution models (SDM) to map and monitor animal and plant distributions has become increasingly important in the context of awareness of environmental change and its ecological consequences. From their original inception as resource inventory and conservation mapping tools, SDM have evolved along with ...

Species distribution models (SDM): applications, benefits and challenges in invasive species management.

Perspectives in Agriculture, Veterinary Science, Nutrition and Natural Resources, 2019
The use of species distribution models (SDM) is of increasing popularity when studying biological invasions, e.g. to assess the impact of climate change on invasive species, to prioritize conservation measures, or to study invasive evolutionary biology ...

Species Distribution of J Chain

The Journal of Immunology, 1971
Abstract A polypeptide chain, other than the heavy and light chains and the secretory component, has been observed in secretory immunoglobulin A (IgA) of both rabbit (1) and human (2) origin. This J chain, as it is called, is readily detectable as a fast-moving band on alkaline-urea disc electrophoresis gels of L-chain fractions from ...

Species distribution modelling to support forest management. A literature review

Ecological Modelling, 2019
Species Distribution Modelling (SDM) techniques were originally developed in the mid-1980s. In this century they are gaining increasing attention in the literature and in practical use as a powerful tool to support forest management strategies especially

Species Distribution of Gastrointestinal Antigens

Nature, 1966
IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE provides a simple means of studying the species distribution of antigenic components of animal tissues1. The availability of gastrointestinal-specific antisera as immunohistological reagents prompted us to explore the distribution of gastrointestinal antigens in mammalian and other vertebrate fauna of Australia.

Ensemble forecasting of species distributions

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2007
Concern over implications of climate change for biodiversity has led to the use of bioclimatic models to forecast the range shifts of species under future climate-change scenarios. Recent studies have demonstrated that projections by alternative models can be so variable as to compromise their usefulness for guiding policy decisions.

Evolutionary algorithms for species distribution modelling: A review in the context of machine learning

Ecological Modelling, 2019
Scientists and decision-makers need tools that can assess which specific pressures lead to ecosystem deterioration, and which measures could reduce these pressures and/or limit their effects.

Species distributions and area relationships

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2014
The well-known species-area relationship is one of many scaling laws, or allometries, in ecology and biology that have received much attention over the years. We present a new derivation of this relationship based on Yule׳s theory of evolution of species.

Modelling Species’ Distributions

2011
Species distribution models have become a commonplace exercise over the last 10 years, however, analyses vary due to different traditions, aims of applications and statistical backgrounds. In this chapter, I lay out what I consider to be the most crucial steps in a species distribution analysis: data pre-processing and visualisation, dimensional ...

Species abundance distributions

Ecology Letters, 2007
Species abundance distributions (SADs) follow one of ecology's oldest and most universal laws - every community shows a hollow curve or hyperbolic shape on a histogram with many rare species and just a few common species. Here, we review theoretical, empirical and statistical developments in the study of SADs. Several key points emerge.
