Predicting species distribution: offering more than simple habitat models
In the last two decades, interest in species distribution models (SDMs) of plants and animals
has grown dramatically. Recent advances in SDMs allow us to potentially forecast …

Global change in forests: responses of species, communities, and biomes: interactions between climate change and land use are projected to cause large shifts in …
This review focuses on three levels of biodiversity: species, communities, and biomes.
Communities are assemblages of interacting species, such as spruce–fir forests or tallgrass …

Newer classification and regression tree techniques: bagging and random forests for ecological prediction
The task of modeling the distribution of a large number of tree species under future climate
scenarios presents unique challenges. First, the model must be robust enough to handle …

Molecular indicators of tree migration capacity under rapid climate change
Recent models and analyses of paleoecological records suggest that tree populations are
capable of rapid migration when climate warms. Fossil pollen is commonly interpreted as …

Effect of roadside bias on the accuracy of predictive maps produced by bioclimatic models
R Kadmon, O Farber, A Danin - Ecological Applications, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
Sampling bias is a common phenomenon in records of plant and animal distribution. Yet,
models based on such records usually ignore the potential implications of bias in data …
