Climate Change Influences on the Global Potential Distribution of Bluetongue Virus
TL;DR: A comprehensive occurrence data set is developed to map the current distribution, estimate the ecological niche, and explore the future potential distribution of BTV globally using ecological niche modeling and based on diverse future climate scenarios from general circulation models (GCMs) for four representative concentration pathways (RCPs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Determinants of diversity in a naturally fragmented landscape: humid montane forest avifaunas of Mesoamerica
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a published data set summarizing avifaunas of 31 montane patches of humid forest in Mesoamerica to analyze avian distributions with respect to site characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accessible Areas in Ecological Niche Comparisons of Invasive Species: Recognized but Still Overlooked
TL;DR: The main finding was that, when the analysis extent is established carefully based on analogous sets of environmental conditions, all evidence of niche shifts disappears, suggesting that previous reports of niche changes for Gray Squirrels are artifacts of methods and interpretation, rather than biological reality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diferencias conceptuales entre modelación de nichos y modelación de áreas de distribución
TL;DR: The ideas of modelar nichos de especies and modelar areas of distribucion, by alguna razon se confunde terminologicamente as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological niche modeling and local knowledge predict new populations of *Gymnocladus assamicus* a critically endangered tree species
TL;DR: This study targeted areas of further field inventories by estimating the potential distribution of Gymnocladus assamicus by using ecological niche modeling to identify 26 sites which the model predicted to be highly suitable for the species' occurrence.
