Habitat selection is a fundamental animal behavior that shapes a wide range of ecological
processes, including animal movement, nutrient transfer, trophic dynamics and population …

Reporting specific modelling methods and metadata is essential to the reproducibility of
ecological studies, yet guidelines rarely exist regarding what information should be noted …

Species distribution modeling (SDM) is widely used in ecology and conservation. Currently,
the most available data for SDM are species presence‐only records (available through …

This software note announces a new open‐source release of the Maxent software for
modeling species distributions from occurrence records and environmental data, and …

Habitat‐selection analyses allow researchers to link animals to their environment via habitat‐
selection or step‐selection functions, and are commonly used to address questions related …

Popular frameworks for studying habitat selection include resource‐selection functions
(RSFs) and step‐selection functions (SSFs), estimated using logistic and conditional logistic …

Biodiversity contributes to the ecological and climatic stability of the Amazon Basin,, but is
increasingly threatened by deforestation and fire,. Here we quantify these impacts over the …

Species distribution models are used to study biogeographic patterns and guide decision‐
making. The variable quality of these models makes it critical to assess whether a model's …

The random forest (RF) algorithm is an ensemble of classification or regression trees and is
widely used, including for species distribution modelling (SDM). Many researchers use …

Presence‐only data present challenges for selecting thresholds to transform species
distribution modeling results into binary outputs. In this article, we compare two recently …
