Without quality presence–absence data, discrimination metrics such as TSS can be misleading measures of model performance
The discriminating capacity (ie ability to correctly classify presences and absences) of
species distribution models (SDM s) is commonly evaluated with metrics such as the area …

Global priorities for conserving the evolutionary history of sharks, rays and chimaeras
In an era of accelerated biodiversity loss and limited conservation resources, systematic
prioritization of species and places is essential. In terrestrial vertebrates, evolutionary …

Conserving mobile species
The distributions of many species are dynamic in space and time, and movements made by
individuals range from regular and predictable migrations to erratic, resource‐driven …
