Accounting for biogeographical ignorance within biodiversity modelling

Written by
Researchers have developed the first Maps of Biogeographical Ignorance (MoBIs) that account for uncertainty in big-data biodiversity analysis, allowing for better informed decision making for conservation purposes

Biodiversity data can be analysed to predict species distribution at various scales of time and space. However, survey completeness and temporal decay in data quality introduce uncertainty into biodiversity models. Researchers Joaquín Hortal, Juliana Stropp (National Museum of Natural Sciences, Spain), Richard Ladle (University of Porto, Portugal), and Geiziane Tessarolo (State University of Goiás, Brazil), among others, are constructing the […]
