W.; Rivas, Gilson A.; Murphy, John C.; Borzée, Amaël; Pyron, Alexander; Pérez-Losada, Marcos; De Freitas, Mayke; Downie, J. Roger; Moreno-Rueda, Gregorio; Forcina, Giovanni; Sánchez-Ramírez, Santiago (Wiley, 2024)

  Aim To date a vicariant event through the mutualistic relationship of a hylid frog and its bromeliad host found across two isolated mountain ranges as part of an island–continental split and to use this information to ...

• Dynamic shifts of functional diversity through climate-Resilient strategies and farmland restoration in a mountain protected area 

  Campos, João C.; Alírio, João; Arenas Castro, Salvador; Duarte, Lia B.; Garcia, Nuno; Regos, Adrián; Pôças, Isabel; Teodoro, Ana C.; Sillero, Neftalí (Elsevier, 2024)

  Land-use land-cover (LULC) change contributes to major ecological impacts, particularly in areas undergoing land abandonment, inducing modifications on habitat structure and species distributions. Alternative land-use ...

• Optimising occurrence data in species distribution models: sample size, positional uncertainty, and sampling bias matter 

  Moudrý, Vítězslav; Bazzichetto, Manuele; Remelgado, Ruben; Devillers, Rodolphe; Lenoir, Jonathan; Mateo, Rubén G.; Lembrechts, Jonas J.; Sillero, Neftalí; Lecours, Vincent; Cord, Anna F.; Barták, Vojtěch; Balej, Petr; Rocchini, Duccio; Torresani, Michele; Arenas Castro, Salvador; Man, Matěj; Prajzlerová, Dominika; Gdulová, Kateřina; Prošek, Jiří; Marchetto, Elisa; Zarzo-Arias, Alejandra; Gábor, Lukáš; Leroy, François; Martini, Matilde; Malavasi, Marco; Cazzolla Gatti, Roberto; Wild, Jan; Šímová, Petra (Wiley, 2024)

  Species distribution models (SDMs) have proven valuable in filling gaps in our knowledge of species occurrences. However, despite their broad applicability, SDMs exhibit critical shortcomings due to limitations in species ...

• Spatially explicit metrics improve the evaluation of species distribution models facing sampling biases 

  Bracho-Estévanez, Claudio A.; Arenas Castro, Salvador; González-Varo, Juan P.; González Moreno, Pablo (Elsevier, 2024)

  The proliferation of open repositories offering georeferenced occurrences on biodiversity has boosted the use of species distribution models (SDMs). However, the need of presence-only records from these repositories yields ...

• Assessing spatial and temporal trends over time in potential species richness using satellite time-series and ecological niche models 

  García, Nuno; Campos, João C.; Alírio, João; Duarte, Lia B.; Arenas Castro, Salvador; Pôças, Isabel; Teodoro, Ana C.; Sillero, Neftalí (Springer, 2024)

  Assessing biodiversity in protected areas is essential for effective conservation management. However, conventional methods for estimating species richness can lead to inaccurate assessments of biodiversity in these regions. ...
