Applications and limitations of museum data for conservation and ecology, with particular attention to species distribution models (2010, result): “In contrast, other studies have found relatively little evidence for evolutionary conservatism of modelled niches (Peterson and Holt, 2003; Rice et al., 2003; Evans et al., 2009).”
Ecological niche modelling of montane mammals in the Great Basin, North America: examining past and present connectivity of species across basins and ranges (2009, background): “This assumption has been supported in a variety of test cases (Peterson et al., 1999; Peterson & Holt, 2003; Wiens & Graham, 2005; Martı́nez-Meyer & Peterson, 2006), and is generally likely to hold true in the heterogeneous habitats of western North America.”
Do geographic distribution, niche property and life form explain plants' vulnerability to global change? (2006, background): “To date, SDMs have concentrated on quantifying species’ range changes, with few efforts to explain the predicted ecological patterns (but see Guisan & Theurillat, 2000; Peterson & Holt, 2003; Thuiller et al., 2005a).”
INTERPRETATION OF MODELS OF FUNDAMENTAL ECOLOGICAL NICHES AND SPECIES' DISTRIBUTIONAL AREAS (2005, background): “Evolutionary effects, particularly in the form of geographic variation in niche characters (Peterson & Holt 2003), are explicitly excluded from the mechanistic approach, whereas they can be assessed in the correlative one via regional submodels within a broader species’ distribution ( Peterson & Hol”
Environmental Niche Equivalency versus Conservatism: Quantitative Approaches to Niche Evolution (2008, methodology): “…choice of algorithm (e.g., Elith et al. 2006; Guisan and Zimmerman 2000), choice of environmental variables (e.g., Parra et al. 2004; Peterson and Nakazawa 2008), spatial resolution (e.g., Engler et al. 2004; Guisan et al. 2007a,b), and sample size (e.g., Guisan et al. 2007b; Papes and Gaubert…”
Ecological niche conservatism: a time‐structured review of evidence (2011, result): “…been clear in recent re-analyses of previous research results (see, for example, the case of Mexican jays and the different conclusions reached by Peterson & Holt, 2003; Rice et al., 2003; and McCormack et al., 2010), this explicit consideration of dispersal abilities of species over relevant…”
Deforestation and extant distributions of Mexican endemic mammals (2005, background): “Moreover, populations of these species are unlikely to persist without significant immigration from adjacent natural habitats ( Peterson and Holt, 2003 ).”
Effects of the number of presences on reliability and stability of MARS species distribution models: the importance of regional niche variation and ecological heterogeneity (2010, background): “…model due to factors such as: (1) identification of important niche dimensions (Anderson et al. 2002); (2) ecological adaptation for subpopulations (Peterson & Holt 2003); (3) training data, source/sink dynamics (Pulliam 2000), or (4) ranges that might only be incompletely represented in the…”
Threshold criteria for conversion of probability of species presence to either–or presence–absence (2007, background): “…model predictions help to delve into questions of biogeography and evolution (Peterson et al., 1999; Anderson et al., 2002a,b; Hugall et al., 2002; Peterson and Holt, 2003; Wiens and Graham, 2005), to search for biological indicators (Bonn and Schröder, 2001), to study the effect of climate…”
Evidence of climatic niche shift during biological invasion. (2007, background): “For instance, niche shifts are important in sympatric speciation (Losos et al. 2003; Levin 2005), whereas niche conservatism can explain allopatric speciation (Huntley et al. 1989; Peterson & Holt 2003; Wiens & Graham 2005).”
Niche conservatism in non‐native birds in Europe: niche unfilling rather than niche expansion (2013, result): “However, compared with our results, Petitpierre et al. (2012) found that plants showed more niche overlap (D = 0.”
Within‐taxon niche structure: niche conservatism, divergence and predicted effects of climate change (2010, background): “In fact, the relationship between distribution and environment varies among subspecies and across the range of species (Mexican birds, Peterson and Holt 2003, a North American tree, Murphy and Lovett-Doust 2007, a colubrid snake, Pyron and Burbrink 2009).”
Reconstructing the Pleistocene geography of the Aphelocoma jays (Corvidae) (2004, methodology): “We do make the potentially tenuous assumption of no evolutionary change in niche characteristics in these evolving lineages, which may not be completely acceptable in the case of Aphelocoma (Peterson & Holt, 2003), although supported more generally (Peterson et al ., 1999).”
Different climatic envelopes among invasive populations may lead to underestimations of current and future biological invasions (2009, background): “If the realized climatic niche is underestimated and/or differs in native versus invasive regions, then the predictive capacity of ENMs will decrease (Peterson & Holt, 2003; Welk, 2004), and models risk misrepresenting the potential for invasion (Peterson, 2005; Loo et al ., 2007).”
