Despite being one of the largest animals on the planet, the limited population and vast territory of the North Atlantic right ...

Aim: Integrated species distribution modelling has emerged as a useful tool for ecologists to exploit the range of information available on where species occur. In particular, the ability to combine ...

Temperature increases in mountain areas are known to stimulate an upslope shift of plant species that are adapted to colder ...

Aim: We present a methodology to address multifaceted uncertainties in species distribution models (SDMs), enhancing their robustness and providing vital insights to inform management and conservation ...

To accurately predict species' distributions and risk of extinction, models must include more than just climate, according to new research. Ecologists estimate that 15 to 37% of plant and animal ...

Information on Earth's biodiversity is increasingly collected using DNA-, image- and audio-based sampling. At the same time, new statistical analysis methods are being developed to make more out of ...

More recently, deep learning and evolutionary algorithms have enabled long-term ecological forecasting, carbon emission ...

An artificial intelligence model is helping researchers use bird-sighting data to estimate their presence at a given time and location. Developed by researchers at Cornell University, the model makes ...

"Climate change is altering snake species' geographic ranges, resulting in expansions, contractions, or shifting ranges," the ...
