The application of spatial modelling to epidemiology has increased significantly over the past decade, delivering enhanced understanding of the environmental and climatic factors affecting disease distributions and providing spatially continuous ...

Invasive species are ranked as one of the leading drivers of global biodiversity loss. To mitigate their impact, we must understand the future risks caused by invasive species, particularly to flora of conservation concern.

Hierarchical Species Distribution Models [PDF]
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.

Machine Learning and Its Applications in Studying the Geographical Distribution of Ants
Traditional species distribution modelling relies on the links between species and their environments, but often such information is unavailable or unreliable.

How climate change will change the potential distribution of two wood-decaying fungi? [PDF]
Changes in climate, which can be understood as fluctuations in climate patterns as a reflection of natural or anthropic interventions, can generate changes in the environment and consequently affect the diversity of organisms.

Spatiotemporal joint species distribution modelling: A basis function approach
We introduce community‐level basis function models (CBFMs) as an approach for spatiotemporal joint distribution modelling. CBFMs can be viewed as related to spatiotemporal latent variable models, where the latent variables are replaced by a set of pre ...

Predicting extinctions with species distribution models
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 ...

Making species distribution models available on the Web for reuse in biodiversity experiments: Euterpe edulis species case study / Modelos de distribuição de espécies disponíveis na Web para reutilização em experimentos de biodiversidade: Estudo de caso com a espécie Euterpe edulis [PDF]
Currently, biodiversity conservation is one of the most urgent and important themes. Biodiversityresearchers use species distribution models to make inferences about species occurrences and locations.These models are fundamental for fauna and flora ...

In a macroecological approach, we have used the data abundant species or archetypal cohorts as proxies for the data deficient species, to model their distributions.
