🌍 BART provides accurate and consistent species distribution predictions, especially when working with pseudo-absence data, making it a strong approach among current modelling methods.

#SpeciesDistributionModels

Excited to be at the #iDivconference2025 this week. First talk by @miguelbaraujo.bsky.social on #speciesDistributionModels and #networkTheory for #foodwebs and impacts of climate change.

Thanks for organising @idiv-research.bsky.social

Poster #6 of @valeriavalanne.bsky.social on the conference of the @waderstudy.bsky.social is about comparison of #SpeciesDistributionModels using three different data types #tracking, #survey and #atlasmapping.

Spatial Change of Dominant Baltic Sea Demersal Fish Across Two Decades This work maps demersal fish biomass in the Baltic Sea using hierarchical generalized additive models. It analyzes biogeographic patterns in this Large Marine Ecosystem, capturing broad spatiotempora...

📉Our new study shows Baltic Sea cod have declined most in Bornholm & Gdańsk Deeps over 20 years. Unlike flatfishes, cod trends can't be explained by environment alone and fishing pressure remains key. #Fisheries #BalticSea #SpeciesDistributionModels @geomarkiel.bsky.social

📊 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.

Spatially nested species distribution models (N‐SDM): An effective tool to overcome niche truncation for more robust inference and projections N-SDMs are key tools to develop untruncated regional climate change forecasts of species distributions at fine resolution over restricted extents. While several N-SDM approaches were proposed, there ....

Happy to share our new #review on Nested #SpeciesDistributionModels (N-SDMs) and their applications to deal with niche truncation for improved predictions of species distributions. We review developments, applications and effectiveness of #N-SDMs 👇
