Can mechanism inform species’ distribution models?

Abstract: Two major approaches address the need to predict species distributions in response to environmental changes. Correlative models estimate parameters phenomenologically by relating current distributions to environmental conditions. By contrast, mechanistic models incorporate explicit relationships between environmental conditions and organismal performance, estimated independently of current distributions. Mechanistic approaches include models that translate environmental conditions into biologically relevant me… Show more

“…These predictions aimed to inform decision makers of new areas under risk of arboviral disease, thus allowing a timely adoption of preventive measures. Two approaches can be adopted to achieve the predictions: (1) physiologically-based models and (2) correlative-based models (Buckley et al 2010;Kearney et al 2010). The former is explicitly based on the key mechanisms by which environmental factors determine population viability.…”

“…Correlative models, on the other hand, rely on the association between the species distribution, and a set of potentially important environmental factors to deduce the drivers of distribution. Because the two approaches have limitations, there is an increasing recognition that a better reliability can be achieved if predictions are derived from both types of models (Hijmans and Graham 2006;Buckley et al 2010;Kearney et al 2010).…”

“…As alterações climáticas têm contribuído para mudanças acentuadas na distribuição geográfica das espécies ao longo das últimas décadas (Walther et al, 2002;Root et al, 2003;Parmesan, 2006); consequentemente, a distribuição das espécies tem sido foco de estudos importantes na área da Ecologia, principalmente nos últimos 20 anos (Deutsch et al, 2008;Diniz-Filho et al, 2010;Buckley et al, 2010).…”

“…Este é construído de acordo com valores máximos e mínimos para todas as variáveis ambientais usadas, buscando valores que se repetem e, assim, mostrando a adequabilidade da espécie para um determinado local. A correlação entre os pontos de ocorrência da espécie e as variáveis ambientais, define o que denominamos de modelo correlativo (Buckley et al, 2010). Contudo, esse tipo de modelo tem sido criticado principalmente em relação a sua simplicidade de correlacionar somente os dados ambientais aos de distribuição das espécies (Buckley et al, 2010), ignorando processos fisiológicos, por exemplo.…”
