Soil nutritional factors improve models of plant species distribution: an illustration with Acer campestre (L.) in France (2006, background): “, 2003; Peterson, 2003), to assess the consequences of global change (Iverson et al., 1999; Schwartz et al., 2001; Theurillat & Guisan, 2001; Bakkenes et al., 2002; Dirnböck et al., 2003; Skov & Svenning, 2004; Araújo et al., 2006), to test biogeographical hypotheses (Huntley et al.”
Synthesis, part of a Special Feature on Resilience and Vulnerability of Arid and Semi-Arid Social Ecological Systems Vulnerability of Worldwide Pastoralism to Global Changes and Interdisciplinary Strategies for Sustainable Pastoralism (2011, background): “…with the remaining residents shifting to other livelihoods have resulted in pronounced changes in ecosystem functions and dynamics (Cernusca et al. 1999, Dirnböck et al. 2003), such as those arising from shrub encroachment onto grasslands in the subalpine zone (Reyneri 2001, Laiolo et al. 2004).”
Fingerprints of environmental change on the rare mediterranean flora: a 115‐year study (2006, background): “This pattern is surprising given that mountain rare species occur in marginal habitats in the study area and have thus been thought to be threatened by climate changes (Dirnbock et al., 2003; Lavergne et al., 2005).”
Invasibility and species richness of island endemic arthropods: a general model of endemic vs. exotic species (2006, background): “Water runoff generation proved to be of potential use in predicting soil properties that control plant distribution (Dirnbock et al., 2003).”
Do geographic distribution, niche property and life form explain plants' vulnerability to global change? (2006, background): “Secondly, land transformation is rarely included in climate change impact scenarios (but see Dirnbock et al., 2003; Thuiller et al., 2006a), although it is a major cause of biodiversity loss (Sala et al., 2000; Lavergne et al., 2005).”
Where will conflicts between alien and rare species occur after climate and land-use change? A test with a novel combined modelling approach (2011, background): “2004), while topography, geomorphology, human land-use or biotic interactions are usually required at regional and local scales (Dirnböck et al. 2003; Guisan and Thuiller 2005; Lassueur et al. 2006; Randin et al. 2009b).”
Predicting spatial patterns of plant species richness: a comparison of direct macroecological and species stacking modelling approaches (2011, methodology): “We used two topographic predictors that were assumed to account for gravitational processes such as snow avalanches, rockfalls and drainage effects (Guisan et al., 1998; Dirnböck et al., 2003).”
Disproportional risk for habitat loss of high‐altitude endemic species under climate change (2011, background): “summer pastures) might provide additional refuges for those endemic species which can survive in managed habitats (Dirnböck et al., 2003).”
Unexpected biodiversity loss under global warming in the neotropical Guayana Highlands: a preliminary appraisal (2006, background): “…is the displacement of environmental conditions to higher altitudes because of global warming, and the consequent community fragmentation and/or habitat loss for taxa living on climatically extreme environments above the treeline (Dirnböck et al., 2003; Körner, 2004; and literature therein).”
Modelling ecological niches with support vector machines (2006, background): “All environmental variables were expected to have direct physiological effects on the plant species (Pearson et al. 2002; Dirnböck et al. 2003; Körner 2003).”
Are niche‐based species distribution models transferable in space? (2006, methodology): “The plot size was constant in CH (16 m(2)), whereas it varied from 5 to 30 m(2) in AT (Dirnböck et al., 2003).”
The effect of species response form on species distribution model prediction and inference (2009, unknown): “and land-use change on species distribution (Guisan and Theurillat, 2000; Dirnbock et al., 2003).”
The application of predictive modelling of species distribution to biodiversity conservation (2007, background): “…may be constrained by unsuitable surrounding habitats (e.g. perturbed areas, topographical barriers) or there may be a physical limit to their range, as is the case of species that live on mountains and cannot continue to shift upwards indefinitely (Dirnbock et al ., 2003; Thuiller et al ., 2006a).”
