Global change in climate and land use has profound effects on species' geographic and
elevational distributions. In European birds, while species are predicted to track their climatic …

Context Species are influenced by factors operating at multiple scales, but multi-scale
species distribution and abundance models are rarely used. Though multi-scale species …

The growth of biodiversity data sets generated by citizen scientists continues to accelerate.
The availability of such data has greatly expanded the scale of questions researchers can …

Context With greater accessibility and processing power from online platforms, summaries
of remotely sensed data are increasingly used in species distribution models (SDMs). …

Investigation of the negative impacts of stress on reproduction has largely centered around
the effects of the adrenal steroid hormone, corticosterone (CORT), and its influence on a …

Aim Sample size and species characteristics, including prevalence and habitat specialization,
can influence the predictive performance of species distribution models (SDMs). There is …

Climate projections over the next century include disproportionately warmer nighttime
temperatures (“asymmetrical warming”). Cool nighttime temperatures lower metabolic rates of …

Human activities are influencing Earth's systems. Combine our effects with the natural dynamism
of climate and ever-changing habitat structures and we have an important opportunity …

Although sophisticated models predict the effects of future temperatures on ectotherms, few
also address how ubiquitous sublethal contaminants alter an organism's response to thermal …

This paper focuses on a core task in computational sustainability and statistical ecology:
species distribution modeling (SDM). In SDM, the occurrence pattern of a species on a …
