ABSTRACT A changing climate may directly or indirectly influence biological invasions by
altering the likelihood of introduction or establishment, as well as modifying the geographic …

Anthropogenic drivers of global change include rising atmospheric concentrations of carbon
dioxide and other greenhouse gasses and resulting changes in the climate, as well as …

Species distribution models (SDMs) constitute the most common class of models across
ecology, evolution and conservation. The advent of ready‐to‐use software packages and …

The aim of the ecospat package is to make available novel tools and methods to support
spatial analyses and modeling of species niches and distributions in a coherent workflow …

Knowing where species occur is fundamental to many ecological and environmental
applications. Species distribution models (SDMs) are typically based on correlations …

Two prominent limitations of species distribution models (SDM s) are spatial biases in
existing occurrence data and a lack of spatially explicit predictor variables to fully capture …

Increasing biodiversity loss due to climate change is one of the most vital challenges of the
21st century. To anticipate and mitigate biodiversity loss, models are needed that reliably …

Macroecology and biogeography are concerned with understanding biodiversity patterns
across space and time. In the past, the two disciplines have addressed this question mainly …

Evidence has accumulated in recent decades on the drastic impact of climate change on
biodiversity. Warming temperatures have induced changes in species physiology …

Global climate change affects marine fish through drivers such as ocean warming,
acidification and oxygen depletion, causing changes in marine ecosystems and …
