The importance of biological plausibility for data poor models in the face of an immediate threat by an emerging infectious disease: a reply to Katz and Zellmer (2018)

2019-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Species distribution models (SDM) are an important tool to predict the invasion risk of alien species and emerging infectious diseases. However, building reliable models in early stages of invasions is a challenging task. Katz and Zellmer (Biol Invasions 20:2107–2119, 2018) addressed this problem and presented a framework for model selection for data-poor newly invasive species. Based on data of the recently disco...
