Landscape scale species distribution modeling across the Guiana Shield to inform conservation decision making in Guyana

2014-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Species distribution modeling using museum and herbarium collections has been greatly facilitated by analytical algorithms such as MaxEnt. The ability to use herbarium and museum collections to inform conservation decision-making can greatly enhance conservation efforts in biodiversity rich countries when human capacity and in-country data are limited. Guyana is used as a case study for landscape scale biodiversit...
