We are facing a biodiversity crisis at the same time as we are acquiring an unprecedented
view of the world's biodiversity. Vast new datasets (eg, species distributions, traits …

Factors that limit the geographic distribution of species are broadly important in ecology and
evolutionary biology, and understanding distribution limits is imperative for predicting how …

Whether species interactions influence species response to environment and species
ranges has always been a central question in ecology. Joint species distribution models …

Aim Separating the biotic and abiotic factors controlling species distributions has been a
long‐standing challenge in ecology and biogeography. Joint species distribution models …

Species distribution models (SDMs) have been increasingly used to predict the geographic
distribution of a wide range of organisms; however, relatively fewer research efforts have …

The difficulty of integrating multiple theories, data and methods has slowed progress
towards making unified inferences of ecological change generalizable across large spatial …

Observational studies have not yet shown that environmental variables can explain
pervasive nonlinear patterns of species abundance, because those patterns could result …

Multispecies models are widely used to evaluate management trade‐offs arising from
species interactions. However, identifying climate impacts and sensitive habitats requires …

As human and automated sensor networks collect increasingly massive volumes of animal
observations, new opportunities have arisen to use these data to infer or track species …

Species distribution models are vital to management decisions that require understanding
habitat use patterns, particularly for species of conservation concern. However, the …
