Species distribution modelling has proven effective in locating cold-water coral hotspots in the deep sea. Maximum entropy (MaxEnt) and gradient boosting (GBM) are equally good at modelling rare species, but previous efforts to predict the distribution of deep-sea Antipatharia have mostly employed MaxEnt. This study investigates how algorithm choice (MaxEnt or GBM) and the application of backward stepwise variable pre-selectio...
Phylogenetic, species richness and logistic influences on the biodiscovery process in CnidariaOA Marine
The extent to which any particular taxon supplies novel natural products depends on biological and evolutionary differences, and on decisions made by (or constraints on) biodiscovery scientists. The influences of different sources of variability on the biodiscovery process were examined in a study of the Cnidaria, a group recognised as an important source of novel marine natural products. The number of species with at least on...
Motivation The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate temporal trends in biodiversity within and amongst assemblages using a broad range of metrics. BioTIME is being developed as a community‐led open‐source database of biodiversity time series. Our goal is to accelerate and facilitate quantitative analysis of temporal...
