Strategies to optimize modeling habitat suitability of Bertholletia excelsa in the Pan‐Amazonia

Abstract: AimAmazon‐nut (Bertholletia excelsa) is a hyperdominant and protected tree species, playing a keystone role in nutrient cycling and ecosystem service provision in Amazonia. Our main goal was to develop a robust habitat suitability model of Amazon‐nut and to identify the most important predictor variables to support conservation and tree planting decisions.LocalizationAmazon region, South America.MethodsWe collected 3,325 unique Amazon‐nut records and assembled >100 spatial predictor variables organized across … Show more

“…For this reason, a modeling technique that does not require absence data was used to identify the environmental factors that explain the distribution of Urial in the Samelghan area. The MaxEnt is a correlative model based on the principle of maximum entropy to predict or infer species occurrence using presence-only data and environmental variables [7,30,31,32,33,34,35]. This algorithm is one of the methods that, despite the small number [30] of presence points have high predictability, and has been widely used by researchers due to time savings and reduced study costs [36,37].…”

“…MaxEnt uses entropy to generalize specific observations of presence-only data and does not require or even incorporate points where the species is absent within the theoretical framework (Kamyo & Asanok, 2020). Maxent model is a useful technique to predict the potentially suitable habitat (Evcin et al ., 2019; Qin et al ., 2020), geographical species distribution (Phillips et al ., 2006; Jiménez-Valverde, 2012; Merow et al ., 2014; Xu et al ., 2015; Mi et al ., 2016; Fronczak et al ., 2017; Wan et al ., 2019; Wang et al ., 2019; Kamyo & Asanok, 2020) on the basis of the most significant environmental conditions (Phillips et al ., 2006; Moreno et al ., 2011; Tourne et al ., 2019). MaxEnt model on simulating the suitable geographical distribution of species, has more advantages than other models, including a good performance with incomplete datasets, short model running time, easy operation, small sample size requirements, and high simulation precision (Hernandez et al ., 2006; Phillips et al ., 2006; Pearson et al ., 2007; Ortega-Huerta and Peterson, 2008; Li et al ., 2020).…”

“…The presence-only data allow for easy public and private involvement in biological monitoring and are the dominant source of species occurrence data (Elith et al, 2011;. Among the algorithms available, one of the most widely used methods of developing SDMs is the Maximum entropy (MaxEnt) method (Phillips et al, 2017;Tourne et al, 2019). MaxEnt uses entropy to generalize specific observations of presence-only data and does not require or even incorporate points where the species is absent within the theoretical framework (Kamyo & Asanok, 2020).…”
