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 environmental niches are central to ecology, evolution, and global change
research, but their characterization and interpretation depend on the spatial scale …

In the face of the growing challenges brought about by human activities, effective planning
and decision-making in biodiversity and ecosystem conservation, restoration, and …

Species distribution models (SDMs) are statistical tools that relate species observations to
environmental conditions to retrieve ecological niches and predict species' potential …

Species distribution models have been used to predict the distribution of invasive species for
conservation planning. Understanding spatial transferability of niche predictions is critical to …

Abstract The Three Gorges Project (TGP) is a mega-water conservancy and hydropower
project that have attracted worldwide attention. Under the influence of human activities, the …

Species distribution and ecological niche models (hereafter SDMs) are popular tools with
broad applications in ecology, biodiversity conservation, and environmental science. Many …

The influence of climate on the distribution of taxa has been extensively investigated in the
last two decades through Habitat Suitability Models (HSMs). In this context, the Worldclim …

Models of species' distributions and niches are frequently used to infer the importance of
range‐and niche‐defining variables. However, the degree to which these models can …

Species distribution models (SDMs) have become one of the major predictive tools in
ecology. However, multiple methodological choices are required during the modelling …
