Modelling the distribution of rare invertebrates by correcting class imbalance and spatial bias

W. B. Gaul, D. Sadykova, H. J. White, L. Leon-Sanchez, P. Caplat, M. C. Emmerson, J. M. Yearsley

This paper improves species distribution models for rare millipedes by addressing class imbalance and spatial bias through spatial under-sampling, showing increased sensitivity for rare species.

Monitoring migratory birds in stopover habitat: assessing the value of extended duration audio recording

E. Roark, W. B. Gaul

This study evaluates using extended duration audio recordings from ARUs to monitor migratory birds in stopover habitats, finding that randomly sampled minutes provide reliable estimates of species presence and abundance comparable to point counts.

Data quantity is more important than its spatial bias for predictive species distribution modelling

W. B. Gaul, D. Sadykova, H. J. White, L. Leon-Sanchez, P. Caplat, M. C. Emmerson, J. M. Yearsley

This study shows that sample size and modelling method are more critical than spatial bias for species distribution model performance.
