Biodiversity models: what if unsaturation is the rule?
Improving biodiversity predictions is essential if we are to meet the challenges posed by
global change. As knowledge is key to feed models, we need to evaluate how debated …

Stacking species distribution models and adjusting bias by linking them to macroecological models
Aim Species distribution models (SDM s) are common tools in biogeography and
conservation ecology. It has been repeatedly claimed that aggregated (stacked) SDM s (S …

The effect of sample size on the accuracy of species distribution models: considering both presences and pseudo‐absences or background sites
Most high‐performing species distribution modelling techniques require both presences,
and either absences or pseudo‐absences or background points. In this paper, we explore …
