Uncertainty 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 کاملHabitat suitability and demography, a time‐dependent relationship
The habitat suitability index, which reflects spatial variability in species occurrence probability, has been shown to exhibit various contrasting relationships with local demographic performances (survival, productivity) in several species. One proposed explanation for these discrepancies is that the link between the habitat suitability index and demography is influenced by density-dependent, ...
متن کاملUSING RelatIve capacIty tO MeaSURe habItat SUItabIlIty
Habitat suitability (HS) modeling relates a species’ potential presence/absence to a set of environmental variables. because of stochastic or demographic population fluctuations, relating abundance to environment is difficult and generally requires time-series of population-density data. Here, I propose an approach to compute relative capacity of a set of habitat classes. I defined relative cap...
متن کاملGlobal habitat suitability models of terrestrial mammals.
Detailed large-scale information on mammal distribution has often been lacking, hindering conservation efforts. We used the information from the 2009 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as a baseline for developing habitat suitability models for 5027 out of 5330 known terrestrial mammal species, based on their habitat relationships. We focused on the following environmental variables: land cove...
متن کاملHabitat suitability models for desert amphibians
A fundamental step in conserving biodiversity is identification of quality habitat needed to sustain populations of target species. We used coarse scale environmental features (soil water holding capacity, soil texture, slope, elevation, and proximity to drainage channels) to predict habitat suitability for four species of desert amphibians in Big Bend National Park, USA: Scaphiopus couchii, Bu...
