In recent years, the use of ecological niche models (ENMs) and species distribution models
(SDMs) to explore the patterns and processes behind observed distribution of species has …

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

Background Ecological niche modeling is a set of analytical tools with applications in
diverse disciplines, yet creating these models rigorously is now a challenging task. The …

The increasing use of species distribution modeling (SDM) has raised new concerns
regarding the inaccuracies, misunderstanding, and misuses of this important tool. One of …

A large array of species distribution model (SDM) approaches has been developed for
explaining and predicting the occurrences of individual species or species assemblages …

Vector-borne diseases remain a major contributor to the global burden of disease, while
climate change is expected to exacerbate their risk. Characterising vector development rate …

Aim Models of species niches and distributions have become invaluable to biogeographers
over the past decade, yet several outstanding methodological issues remain. Here we …
