Title Non-equilibrium in plant distribution models – only an issue for introduced or dispersal limited species?
Creator Kettenring, Karin M Menuz, Diane R. Hawkins, Charles P. Cutler, D. Richard
Description Species distribution models rely on the assumption that species' distributions are at equilibrium with environmental conditions within a region – i.e. they occur in all suitable habitats. If this assumption holds, species occurrence should be predictable from measures of the environment. Introduced species may be poor candidates for distribution models due to their presumed lack of equilibrium within the landscapes they occupy, although predicting their potential distributions is often of...
