Evaluating the vulnerability of Tetracentron sinense habitats to climate‐induced latitudinal shifts by Yuanjie Gan, Lijun Cheng, Junfeng Tang, Hongyan Han, Xiaohong Gan

“…On the premise of discussing the influence of dominant environmental factors on its distribution model, the suitable area changes of T. sinense under different ecological climate situations were quantitatively analyzed. (1) The AUC and TSS values predicted by the optimized model were 0.959 and 0.835, respectively, indicating a good predictive effect by the MaxEnt model; the potential suitable areas for T. sinense in the current period are mainly located in Southwest China, which are wider compared to the actual habitats. (2) Jackknife testing showed that the lowest temperature in the coldest month (Bio6), elevation (Elev), seasonal variation coefficient of temperature (Bio4), and surface calcium carbonate content (T‐CACO3) are the dominant environmental factors affecting the distribution of T. sinense. (3) From the last interglacial period to the current period, the total suitable area of T. sinense showed a decreasing trend; the distribution points of T. sinense populations in mid‐Holocene period may be the origin of the postglacial population, and Southwest China may be its glacial biological refuge. (4) Compared with the current period, the total suitable area ranges of T. sinense in China in the 2050s and 2070s decreased, and the centroid location of its total fitness area all migrated to the northwest, with the largest migration distance in 2070s under the SSPs 7.0 climate scenario. …”

Case Report: Independence day, comparison of methods to estimate the onset of dispersal in large territorial birds by Diego Gallego-García, Bryan D. Watts, José Hernán Sarasola

“…Methods We used unique GPS data from parent Chaco eagles (Buteogallus coronatus), a large, territorial, and endangered species, with their corresponding fledglings during the PFDP as a reference against which to evaluate (1) the existing methodologies in the literature; (2) modified methods based on previous ones; and (3) new methods related to changes and overlap values in the ranging areas of young individuals. To quantitatively assess which method best matched the reference values, we calculated the mean deviation and bias on an individual basis, also accounting for the interindividual coefficient of variation. …”
