Strategies for sampling pseudo-absences for species distribution models in complex mountainous terrain

This study evaluates pseudo-absence strategies for species distribution models in complex mountainous terrain, finding that generic and species-specific approaches can produce robust predictions, with environmental stratification improving performance in biased datasets.
