Key message Adaptation of forest management to climate change requires an
understanding of the effects of climate on forests, industries and communities; prediction of …

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

Aim To assess the usefulness of combining climate predictors with additional types of
environmental predictors in species distribution models for range‐restricted species, using …

Species distribution models (SDMs) provide insights into species' ecology and distributions
and are frequently used to guide conservation priorities. However, many uses of SDMs …

Changing climate is already impacting the spatial distribution of many taxa, including bees,
plants, birds, butterflies and fishes. A common goal is to detect range shifts in response to …

Abstract Ecological Niche Models (ENM s) are increasingly used by ecologists to project
species potential future distribution. However, the application of such models may be …

Aim MaxEnt has been widely used to model species' geographic distributions as functions of
environmental variables and to predict changes in distributions in response to …

For climate change projections to be useful, the magnitude of change must be understood
relative to the magnitude of uncertainty in model predictions. We quantified the signal‐to …

Abstract The people of New York have long benefited from the state's diversity of
ecosystems, which range from coastal shorelines and wetlands to extensive forests and …

Aim Using survey data for North American birds, we assess how well historical patterns of
species richness are explained by stacked species distribution models and macroecological …
