Several environmental factors can influence species distributions in these complex ecosystems. It is therefore important to distinguish the effects of natural factors from the anthropogenic ones (e.g., environmental pollution, climate change, and forest management) by adopting reliable models able to predict future scenarios of species distribution. In the last 20 years, the use of statistical tools, such as Species Distribution Models (SDM) or Ecological Niche Models (ENM), allowed researchers to make great strides in the subject, with hundreds of scientific research works in this field. This book collects several research articles where these methodological approaches are the starting point to deepen the knowledge in many timely and emerging topics in forest ecosystems around the world, from Eurasia to America. 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aEcological science, the Biosphere$2bicssc 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $aamphibian 610 $aaridization 610 $aassociation group 610 $abeta diversity 610 $abiodiversity 610 $abiodiversity conservation 610 $abiomod2 610 $aCarabidae 610 $aCharcoal 610 $achlorophyll fluorescence 610 $aclimate change 610 $aclimatic change 610 $aconservation 610 $adispersal 610 $aDominant species 610 $aecological modelling 610 $aEcological Niche Model 610 $aecological sustainability 610 $aecological-phytocoenotic classification 610 $aendangered 610 $aephemeral wetland 610 $aepiphytic macrolichens 610 $aEucalyptus 610 $aEuscaphis japonica 610 $afine-filter approach 610 $aforest formation 610 $aForest History 610 $aforest management 610 $aforested wetland 610 $afunctional traits 610 $afuture spatial projection 610 $aGARP 610 $ageographical information systems 610 $agrowth rates 610 $ahabitat 610 $ahabitat quality 610 $ahabitat restoration 610 $ahabitat suitability model 610 $ahumid forest 610 $aindicator species 610 $aLandsat 610 $aLast Glacial Maximum 610 $amacroinvertebrate 610 $aMaxent 610 $aMaxEnt 610 $aMediterranean area 610 $amixed forests 610 $aMoscow Region 610 $an/a 610 $aold-growth 610 $aPaleoecology 610 $aPermutation test 610 $aPhylogenetic distance 610 $aPhylogenetic relationships 610 $aPinus mugo/uncinata 610 $aPinus nigra 610 $aPinus sylvestris 610 $apotential suitable habitat 610 $apressure-state-response model 610 $aprotected areas 610 $aquadrat counts 610 $aQuantitative distribution 610 $aQuercus pubescens 610 $aRelative groups 610 $aSDMtoolbox 610 $asexual reproduction 610 $asilviculture 610 $asoil moisture 610 $aspatial modeling 610 $aspecies count data 610 $aspecies distribution 610 $aspecies distribution models 610 $aspecies geographic distribution modeling 610 $astand structure 610 $atree diameters 610 $atree distribution patterns 610 $avariation partitioning 610 $avegetative propagules 610 $azooplankton 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aEcological science, the Biosphere 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aBrunialti$b Giorgio$4edt$01289208 702 $aFrati$b Luisa$4edt 702 $aBrunialti$b Giorgio$4oth 702 $aFrati$b Luisa$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557310403321 996 $aModeling of Species Distribution and Biodiversity in Forests$93021087 997 $aUNINA
