Machine learning applied to global scale species distribution models [PDF]
Scientific ReportsSpecies Distribution Models (SDMs) are widely used in ecology to analyze historical and future patterns of marine species distributions. Given the growing impact of climate change, predicting potential shifts in species ranges has become a key challenge.

Predicting extinctions with species distribution models
Cambridge Prisms: Extinction, 2023 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 ...

Cartograms tool to represent spatial uncertainty in species distribution [PDF]
Research Ideas and Outcomes, 2017 Species distribution models have become an important tool for biodiversity monitoring. Like all statistical modelling techniques developed based on field data, they are prone to uncertainty due to bias in the sampling (e.g.

Community confounding in joint species distribution models
Scientific Reports, 2022 Joint species distribution models have become ubiquitous for studying species-environment relationships and dependence among species. Accounting for community structure often improves predictive power, but can also affect inference on species-environment

Considerations for Building Climate-based Species Distribution Models
EDIS, 2016 Climate plays an important role in the distribution of species. A given species may adjust to new conditions in-place, move to new areas with suitable climates, or go extinct.
