Habitat suitability modelling and niche theory
1. The concept of the ecological niche relates a set of environmental variables to the fitness of species, while habitat suitability models (HSMs) relate environmental variables to the likelihood of occurrence of the species. In spite of this relationship, the concepts are weakly linked in the literature, and there is a strong need for better integration. 2. We selectively reviewed the literatu...
متن کاملHabitat suitability modelling from non-point data: The case study of brown bear habitat in Slovakia
a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Habitat suitability model Brown bear Geographical information system GARP The paper describes the procedure for constructing a habitat suitability model from the distribution maps of a modelled species. If exact locations are not available, old and present thematic maps indicating species distribution can be used instead. We developed this procedure to create the...
متن کاملUncertainty in Various Habitat Suitability Models and Its Impact on Habitat Suitability Estimates for Fish
Species distribution models (SDMs) are extensively used to project habitat suitability of species in stream ecological studies. Owing to complex sources of uncertainty, such models may yield projections with varying degrees of uncertainty. To better understand projected spatial distributions and the variability between habitat suitability projections, this study uses five SDMs that are based on...
متن کاملWhich is the optimal sampling strategy for habitat suitability modelling
Designing an efficient sampling strategy is of crucial importance for habitat suitability modelling. This paper compares four such strategies, namely, ‘random’, ‘regular’, ‘proportional-stratified’ and ‘equal-stratified’*/to investigate (1) how they affect prediction accuracy and (2) how sensitive they are to sample size. In order to compare them, a virtual species approach (Ecol. Model. 145 (2...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal variation in range-wide Golden-cheeked Warbler breeding habitat
Habitat availability ultimately limits the distribution and abundance of wildlife species. Consequently, it is paramount to identify where wildlife habitat is and understand how it changes over time in order to implement large-scale wildlife conservation plans. Yet, no work has quantified the degree of change in range-wide breeding habitat for the Golden-cheeked Warbler (Setophaga chrysoparia),...
