Including biotic interactions in species distribution models improves the understanding of species niche: a case of study with the brown bear in Europe

P. M. Lucas, W. Thuiller, M. V. Talluto, E. Polaina, J. Albrecht, N. Selva, M. De Barba, L. Maiorano, V. Penteriani, M. Guegen, N. Balkenhol, T. Dutta, A. Fedororca, S. C. Frank, A. Zedrosser, , Ion

This study shows that including biotic interactions in species distribution models improves predictions of future range shifts for brown bears in Europe under climate and land use change scenarios.

Drivers of change in the realised climatic niche of terrestrial mammal species

M. Di Marco, M. Pacifici, L. Maiorano, C. Rondinini

This study examines how human activities, climate change, and life history traits influence niche change in 589 terrestrial mammals, finding that climatic factors are the strongest drivers of niche shrinkage.
