Species distribution modeling in the tropics: problems, potentialities, and the role of biological data for effective species conservation [PDF]
, 2009 In this paper we aim to investigate the problems and potentialities of species distribution modeling (SDM) as a tool for conservation planning and policy development and implementation in tropical regions.

Species distribution modeling in the cloud [PDF]
Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, 2013 SummarySpecies distribution modeling is a process aiming at computationally predicting the distribution of species in geographic areas on the basis of environmental parameters including climate data. Such a quantitative approach has a lot of potentialities in many areas that include setting up conservation priorities, testing biogeographic hypotheses ...

Community Confounding In Joint Species Distribution Models [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Abstract Joint species distribution models have become ubiquitous for studying species-habitat relationships and dependence among species. Accounting for community structure often improves predictive power, but can also alter inference on species-habitat relationships.

Acta Herpetologica, 2020 Climate plays important roles in determining the geographical distribution of species, including the invasion area of alien species. Little is known, however, about the influence of climate change on the distribution area of invasive amphibian species in

Critical Dependence of Butterflies on a Non-native Host Plant in the Urban Tropics
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Increasing urbanization in the tropics has led to the loss of natural habitats and local extirpations and the introduction of non-native plants in urban centers.

Predicting extinctions with species distribution models
Cambridge Prisms: Extinction, 2023 Abstract Predictions of species-level extinction risk from climate change are mostly based on species distribution models (SDMs). Reviewing the literature, we summarise why the translation of SDM results to extinction risk is conceptually and methodologically challenged and why critical SDM assumptions are unlikely to be met under ...

Monotonicity-constrained species distribution models [PDF]
Ecology, 2011 Flexible modeling frameworks for species distribution models based on generalized additive models that allow for smooth, nonlinear effects and interactions are of increasing importance in ecology. Commonly, the flexibility of such smooth function estimates is controlled by means of penalized estimation procedures.
