Species Distribution Modeling in the Tropics: Problems, Potentialities, and the Role of Biological Data for Effective Species Conservation (2009, background): “Some examples can be found in Anderson et al. (2002), Ortega-Huerta and Peterson (2004), Peterson et al. (2004), and García (2006).”
Applications and limitations of museum data for conservation and ecology, with particular attention to species distribution models (2010, methodology): “Models of species richness can be used to assess whether existing networks of protected areas are effective at conserving the most biologically diverse areas (Garcia, 2006; Newbold et al., 2009).”
Climate‐based models of spatial patterns of species richness in Egypt’s butterfly and mammal fauna (2009, methodology): “For example, Garcia (2006) produced distribution models for 267 reptile and amphibian species in Mexico and summed them to produce a prediction of species richness.”
Sampling bias and the use of ecological niche modeling in conservation planning: a field evaluation in a biodiversity hotspot (2010, methodology): “Ecological niche modeling has been applied in conservation biology to identify areas with high species richness (Garcia 2006; Costa et al. 2007), sample for rare species (Guisan et al.”
