In an era of climate change, biological invasions by alien species represent one of the main
anthropogenic drivers of global environmental change. The present study, using an …

This study attempts to model the probability of occurrence of some characteristic macro-
invertebrate species of the Baltic Sea from different functional groups (ie grazers, deposit …

Spatial management of the deep sea is challenging due to limited available data on the
distribution of species and habitats to support decision making. In the well-studied North …

Aquatic habitat suitability models have increasingly received attention due to their wide
management applications. Ecological expert knowledge has been frequently incorporated in …

Species distribution modeling is widely applied to predict invasive species distributions and
species range shifts under climate change. Accurate predictions depend upon meeting the …

Habitat loss and degradation induced by human development are among the major threats
to biodiversity worldwide. In this study, we tested our ability to predict the response of bird …

The environmental causation of species' distributions depends on three general, interacting
types of factors: the abiotic (or physical) environment, the biotic environment, and …

Aim Species distribution models have become important tools for studying changes in
biodiversity. Most studies use these models to evaluate the impact of global changes on …

Knowledge of the spatial distribution and habitat associations of species in relation to the
