Spatial Joint Species Distribution Modeling using Dirichlet Processes
Statistica Sinica, 2018 Species distribution models usually attempt to explain presence-absence or abundance of a species at a site in terms of the environmental features (socalled abiotic features) present at the site.

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.

Range map datasets for terrestrial vertebrates across Taiwan
Data in Brief, 2022 Accurate data describing the geographic distribution of specific species form the basis for effective conservation management policies. However, for most species the freely available distributional information is usually confined to either expert maps or

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.

Bounding species distribution models [PDF]
Current Zoology, 2011 Species distribution models are increasing in popularity for mapping suitable habitat for species of management concern. Many investigators now recognize that extrapolations of these models with geographic information systems (GIS) might be sensitive to the environmental bounds of the data used in their development, yet there is no recommended best ...

Connecting species’ geographical distributions to environmental variables: range maps versus observed points of occurrence [PDF]
, 2020 Connecting the geographical occurrence of a species with underlying environmental variables is fundamental for many analyses of life history evolution and for modeling species distributions for both basic and practical ends.

Hierarchical Species Distribution Models [PDF]
Current Landscape Ecology Reports, 2016 Determining the distribution pattern of a species is important to increase scientific knowledge, inform management decisions, and conserve biodiversity. To infer spatial and temporal patterns, species distribution models have been developed for use with many sampling designs and types of data.

Zoning for edaphoclimatic aptitude of Bambusa vulgaris and Dendrocalamus giganteus in Brazil
Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2019 The use of renewable materials and more sustainable processes are essential to minimize the negative impacts of population growth. Bamboo is a viable alternative, because it is a product with potential properties for wood replacement. However, to achieve

Geographic patterns of distribution and ecological niche of the snake-necked turtle genus Hydromedusa [PDF]
PeerJBiotic and abiotic factors play a crucial role in determining the distribution of species. These factors dictate the conditions that must be met for a species to thrive in a particular area.
