Journal ArticleDOI
Potential impact of climate change on the distribution and conservation status of Pterocarpus marsupium, a Near Threatened South Asian medicinal tree species
Sujan Khanal,Ram Hari Timilsina,Maryam Behroozian,A. Townsend Peterson,Megharaj Poudel,M. Alwar,T. Wijewickrama,Luis Osorio-Olvera +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors evaluated the potential geographic distribution of Pterocarpus marsupium under present and future conditions using ecological niche modeling approaches, and examined the future potential distribution of the species under two representative concentration pathway scenarios (RCP 4.5 and 8.5).
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of Deep Learning to Community-Science-Based Mosquito Monitoring and Detection of Novel Species.
Ali Khalighifar,Ali Khalighifar,Daniel Jiménez-García,Daniel Jiménez-García,Lindsay P. Campbell,Koffi Mensah Ahadji-Dabla,Fred Aboagye-Antwi,Luis Arturo Ibarra-Juárez,A. Townsend Peterson +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors applied deep learning algorithms (TensorFlow Inception v3) to spectrogram images generated from smartphone recordings associated with six mosquito species to develop a multiclass mosquito identification system, and flag potential invasive vectors not present in the sound reference library.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climatic suitability of the eastern paralysis tick, Ixodes holocyclus, and its likely geographic distribution in the year 2050.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived correlative ecological niche models to predict the current and future potential distribution of Ixodes holocyclus in Australia, and selected the best fitting model based on statistical significance, omission rate, and Akaike Information Criterion (AICc).
Journal ArticleDOI
Philippine bird taxonomy and conservation, a response to Collar
TL;DR: Collar (2007) attacked a recent paper of mine (Peterson 2006) on a number of grounds; he raised some valid points, and detected some errors in detail as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling potential Pleistocene habitat corridors between Afromontane forest regions
Kaitlin E. Allen,Walter P. Tapondjou,Benedictus Freeman,Jacob C. Cooper,Rafe M. Brown,A. Townsend Peterson +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on sixteen endemic tree, shrub, and bird species in the Cameroon Volcanic Line, East African Rift and Great Escarpment, and found widespread climatic suitability for their montane taxa throughout the lowlands of Central Africa during the last glacial maximum (LGM), connecting all regions of the Afromontane archipelago except the Ethiopian Highlands and the Dahomey Gap.
