In the last two decades, interest in species distribution models (SDMs) of plants and animals
has grown dramatically. Recent advances in SDMs allow us to potentially forecast …

… Wilfried Thuiller… Wilfried Thuiller … This is a classical trade-off between precise small-scale
models and coarse large-scale models that lack biological realism (Thuiller 2003). …

Climate change and biological invasions are key processes affecting global biodiversity, yet
their effects have usually been considered separately. Here, we emphasise that global …

BIOMOD is a computer platform for ensemble forecasting of species distributions, enabling
the treatment of a range of methodological uncertainties in models and the examination of …

Global change will alter the supply of ecosystem services that are vital for human well-being.
To investigate ecosystem service supply during the 21st century, we used a range of …

Climate change has already triggered species distribution shifts in many parts of the world.
Increasing impacts are expected for the future, yet few studies have aimed for a general …

Niche‐based models calibrated in the native range by relating species observations to climatic
variables are commonly used to predict the potential spatial extent of species’ invasion. …

Species distribution models are increasingly used to address questions in conservation
biology, ecology and evolution. The most effective species distribution models require data on …

Increasing concern over the implications of climate change for biodiversity has led to the
use of species–climate envelope models to project species extinction risk under climate‐…

… We simulated the distribution of 28 threatened plant species using the BIOMOD tool (Thuiller,
2003), as implemented for R software. Eight techniques were used in modelling analyses: …
