The role of climate data resolution on species distribution models
Species distribution models use climate data at varying spatial scales, but how may this impact their performance?
Modelling species niches using expert-based range maps
How well do models based on range maps curated by experts perform compared to models based on real occurrences?
Using genetics to improve ecological niche models
Genetically distinct members of the same species might respond differently to climate change
Choosing the right climate data for species distribution models
When creating species distributions models, is data based on sort-term variability or long-term averages preferable?
Adding biotics to species distribution models
This paper evaluates the impact of biotic factors on species distribution patterns.
Cleaning up big data
This study discusses methods of data cleaning and assesses the impact of strict cleaning schemes on performance of species distribution models.
