Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used in ecology. In theory, SDMs capture (at
least part of) species' ecological niches and can be used to make inferences about the …

A core challenge in global change biology is to predict how species will respond to future
environmental change and to manage these responses. To make such predictions and …

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species
includes assessment of extinction risk for 98 512 species, plus documentation of their range …

Rapid climatic changes and increasing human influence at high elevations around the world
will have profound impacts on mountain biodiversity. However, forecasts from statistical …

Coffee is one of the most important globally traded commodities and substantially
contributes to the livelihoods of millions of smallholders worldwide. As a climate-sensitive …

Intraspecific variation plays a critical role in extant and future forest responses to climate
change. Forest tree species with wide climatic niches rely on the intraspecific variation …

Aim Recent studies increasingly use statistical methods to infer biotic interactions from co‐
occurrence information at a large spatial scale. However, disentangling biotic interactions …

Populations of many species are genetically adapted to local historical climate conditions.
Yet most forecasts of species' distributions under climate change have ignored local …

Knowing where species occur is fundamental to many ecological and environmental
applications. Species distribution models (SDMs) are typically based on correlations …

Ecological systems can often be characterised by changes among a finite set of underlying
states pertaining to individuals, populations, communities or entire ecosystems through time …
