TL;DR: A review of existing modelling approaches applied to species habitat mapping can be found in this article, where the authors discuss issues arising from the availability and nature of sampled biological data and corresponding ecological and environmental habitat descriptors, as well as different spatial analysis approaches that are selected according to specific hypotheses.

TL;DR: The relationship between cephalopod stock dynamics and environmental conditions is of two main types: those concerning the geographic distribution of abundance, for which the mechanism is often unknown, and those relating to biological processes such as egg survival, growth, recruitment and migration, where mechanisms are sometimes known and in a very few cases demonstrated by experimental evidence as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, a multi-parameter model that includes processing and integration of essential fish habitat (EFH) environmental and biological descriptors under a Geographic Information System (GIS) is proposed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a GIS model based on spatial data integration between satellite imagery of Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) sea surface temperature (SST) and Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) chlorophyll concentration (Chl-a) for Eastern Mediterranean waters is developed.

TL;DR: In this paper, large-scale modes of atmospheric variability over the northern hemisphere are associated with chlorophyll-a concentration in the Mediterranean, while correlation maps were also built to distinguish between localized and distant effects.
