Different climatic envelopes among invasive populations may lead to underestimations of current and future biological invasions
Aim We explore the impact of calibrating ecological niche models (ENMs) using (1) native
range (NR) data versus (2) entire range (ER) data (native and invasive) on projections of …

Residence time and potential range: crucial considerations in modelling plant invasions
ABSTRACT A prime aim of invasion biology is to predict which species will become
invasive, but retrospective analyses have so far failed to develop robust generalizations …
