🐻 How much space do #brownbears still have in Europe?
🌍 #SDMs show that ~37% of the continent remains suitable #habitat, but #connectivity is fragmented by #agriculture and human development, highlighting the need for transboundary #conservation.

🐬Cetacean data in the North Pacific are mostly summer-biased, yet #dolphinfisheries occur in winter.
Using long-term sightings and #SDMs, this study reveals seasonal distribution shifts and climate-driven changes critical for #cetacean conservation.

🌱 How far can plants really shift their future range under #climatechange? Using #SDMs for 1318 European species, this study shows that most #plants can’t track shifting climates.
⚠️ Authors suggest caution in assuming #dispersal capability in SDMs.

🌱 Managing #invasivespecies requires balance: too much regulation fuels conflict, too little fuels spread. Using guava as a model in South Africa, this study shows how spatially tuned #SDMs can guide proportional regulation, reducing unnecessary restrictions. 🌐

🐟 Using #SDMs, researchers mapped how #bulltrout in Northern Canada might respond to #climatewarming. If they can’t adapt, suitable habitat may shrink by up to 46% — but with niche expansion, driven by local #adaptation, it could grow instead. 🗺️

Mountain #biodiversity is highly threatened by #ClimateChange. ⛰️ Using #SDMs for 272 #lichens across the Alps, this new study reveals major habitat losses and unexpected refugia in deep valleys, urging targeted conservation.

🗺️ Mapping #prey availability is key to improving #SDMs, refine habitat estimates for listed #predators and identify priority regions for #Conservation.

Yesterday, we had a webinar organised by the #PEPR #FORESTT on the use of species distribution models #SDMs with application in forestry 🌳🌲 You can watch 📹 16 talks on this topic, including one on the impacts of microclimatic processes for species (re)distribution ⬇️

📊 Using Boosted Regression Trees, we project habitat suitability under two climate scenarios:
🌱 SSP1-2.6 (low forcing)
🔥 SSP5-8.5 (high forcing)
We then assess predator–prey spatial overlap.

Big thanks to everyone who attended my talk at the Iberian Ecological Society Conference and shared your feedback—and to Pontevedra (Galicia) for the non-rainy days! ☀️
We presented our first results on aquatic species distribution models designed for freshwater systems!
More soon #Ecology #SDMs
Multi-taxon predictions of deep-sea #corals and #sponges from stacked species distribution models #SDMs in the United States West Coast and relation to #trawl closure zones

🛠️ A new tool for biodiversity conservation! @daviser95.bsky.social et al., developed a framework combining #SDMs, #connectivity, and individual-based models to support #reintroductions planning, demonstrating its use on the Eurasian #lynx in the Apennines. 🌍🧬

Genial la edición del #tallerModelizaciónGBIF2025. Jornadas muy interesantes y compartidas con un equipo estupendo. ¡Gracias a todos! #SDMs #curso @gbif.es
Our new review article shows how hierarchical models (N-SDMs) allow combining spatial scales to avoid errors and improve predictions under climate change. #SDMS #ClimateChange besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
Nuestro nuevo artículo de revisión muestra cómo los modelos jerárquicos (N-SDMs) permiten combinar escalas para evitar errores y mejorar las predicciones bajo cambio climático.

Ya tenemos la lista de los alumnos de esta edición! Si te has quedado sin plaza, atento a la edición del año que viene @gbif.es. Nos vemos el próximo Martes! 💻🐻🌳🌐 #tallerModelizaciónGBIF2025 #SDMs #Madrid #Curso
How do island endemics fare in a rapidly changing 🌎?
We focused on Evvia, a Mediterranean biodiversity hotspot, using #SDMs and a variety of other macroecological analyses.

Binarising probability values from species distribution models #SDMs can be very tricky when tracking #species #range #shifts in response to #climate #change ➡️ We need to use multiple threshold-selection methods beyond just TSS which tend to underestimate range contractions 🌐🌍🌡📈💧📉

🚨NEW PAPER 🚨
Nice to see this collaboration on paleo-species distribution modeling out in Ecology @esajournals.bsky.social @stockholm-uni.bsky.social #peatlands #SDMs

Hope you will find it useful & that you will consider relaxing the equilibrium assumption when fitting #SDMs 😊
Let me guide you through what we did to test time lag dynamics in species distribution models #SDMs of 🌲🌳 birds in 🇪🇺 A 🧵
Which #Populationdynamics driver mainly promote the formation of regional #biodiversityhotspot among #Sphingidae?
