We hypothesized that the control of invasive pests by native predators would decrease with increasing temperatures. We investigated the effects of high temperatures jointly with other factors related to biological control conditions (i.e., habitat complexity reflected by predator searching efficiency, predator-to-prey ratio, and relative timing of species establishment) on predator-prey population dynamics for the zoophytophagous and generalist mirid bug, <em>Nesidiocoris tenuis</em>, and the tomato leaf miner, <em>Tuta absoluta</em>, a native insect predator and an invasive insect pest, respectively, in Senegal. We carried out life history trait measurements in the laboratory at different temperatures (i.e., constant temperatures of 25, 30, 35, 40, and 45 °C and temperatures of 40:35 °C alternating following the light and dark cycle). We developed a stochastic individual-based model to simulate predator and prey population dynamics. Both species were able to complete their life cycle until 35 °C and until 40 °C when the night temperature decreased to 35 °C, while populations persisted over time only at 25 and 30 °C. Contrary to our expectations, pest control increased with temperature due to a higher predation efficiency and asymmetries between insect fitness responses to temperature in favor of the predator. Our study showed that populations of <em>T. absoluta</em> would not increase at high temperatures, either due to successful control by <em>N. tenuis</em> at 30 °C or due to a population collapse at 35 °C and beyond, as <em>T. absoluta</em> approaches its critical thermal maximum. At a temperature less favorable for pest control (25 °C), the timing of predator and pest establishment was the main factor determining the performance of pest control. Control was ensured when the predator established before or close to pest infestation. This can occur with generalist predators that can survive by feeding on alternative resources.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51043,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Modelling","volume":"507 ","pages":"Article 111186"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144083757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, model accuracy is commonly only assessed at the full calibration range, and whether the reduction of extent between calibration and projection areas reduces model accuracy has rarely been systematically evaluated. In this case study, we calibrated SDMs for 16 alpine plant species by relating occurrence records from across the European Alps to six topo-climatic predictors at a spatial resolution of 100 × 100 m. We then projected the species’ distributions across the Alps and compared the accuracy achieved at the extent of the Alps to the one achieved within three individual mountain landscapes. Projection accuracy for individual mountains differed strongly, ranging from projections even slightly more accurate than for the entire Alps to those much less accurate. The drop in projection accuracy between the extent of the Alps and the individual mountains increased with the dissimilarity of the niche realized by a species on a particular individual mountain as compared to the one realized at the extent of the Alps. Thus, full-extent accuracy metrics can be strongly misleading for smaller-extent applications. We recommend that such applications should be accompanied by a careful evaluation of the niche realized by species at both extents. If sufficient data are available at both extents, combining models calibrated at both scales, as recently suggested, appears a particularly promising approach.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51043,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Modelling","volume":"507 ","pages":"Article 111170"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144088943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, this has led to a series of ecological and environmental issues, with threats to fish habitats caused by hydrological alterations being particularly significant. Habitat assessment can be used to effectively identify the impacts of hydraulic projects on ecosystems, particularly with respect to ecological flows and ecohydrological characteristics. The current methods of ecological flow determination focus solely on habitat area while overlooking habitat connectivity. Additionally, the identification of ecohydrological characteristics is based entirely on hydrological data, neglecting habitat stability. We selected the large national spawning ground downstream of the Xiangjiaba (XJB) hydropower station and the protected fish species <em>Myxocyprinus asiaticus</em> (<em>M. asiaticus)</em> as research subjects and incorporated functional connectivity and habitat stability into a fish habitat assessment model. Functional connectivity of habitat patches was evaluated using circuit theory, and habitat stability under flow variations was assessed through overlap rate. By simulating the habitat distribution and variations under various flow scenarios, we identified the suitable ecological flow range as 2205–2695 m³/s. The optimal daily flow variation range was determined to be -41.8 to 53.1 m³/s, with the extreme range of -137.3 to 171.8 m³/s. On the basis of these habitat requirements, we proposed an optimized ecological operation scheme. Compared with actual operations, in the minimum ecological deviation scenario, power generation is reduced by only 0.44 %, and the degree of ecological flow deviation is considerably decreased by 43.47 %. Moreover, the optimized scheme yields a stable and suitable flow lasting for one month, which is conducive to promoting the spawning and reproduction of <em>M. asiaticus</em>.

This study addresses three key questions: (i) how does varying background proportions affect predictive accuracy? (ii) How do background proportions influence future species distribution projections under climate change? and (iii) should the number of background records be determined based on study region size or presence record availability? To investigate these questions, we simulated 280 virtual species distributions worldwide under present and future climate conditions. Model outputs were evaluated against simulated “true” distributions under both present and future scenarios. Results indicate that sampling background records proportional to either presence points or study area yields comparable average performance. Optimal performance occurred with a 0.5–1 ratio of background records to presence points when sampled proportionally to presences, and with approximately 5 % of the study area sampled when proportional to region size. Species prevalence also modulated the optimal presence-background ratio. Increasing the number of background records across suitable and unsuitable areas had contrasting effects for both strategies tested, emphasizing the need to assess model performance separately for both. Notably, background proportions influenced baseline predictions but had minimal impact on future projections, where niche-related variables dominated model performance. These findings offer practical insights for SDM practitioners. Adjusting background sampling strategies enhances current prediction accuracy, while future projections remain robust across different sampling approaches, ensuring more reliable modelling outcomes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51043,"journal":{"name":"Ecological Modelling","volume":"507 ","pages":"Article 111177"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143942610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To validate its efficacy, we retrospectively applied the model to the 2018 heatwave across 20 measurement stations on lowland Swiss rivers, comparing its results with assessments from experts and practitioners. We found that the model successfully forecast stress peaks 2–3 weeks in advance at two validated key sites, where high mortality was reported by practitioners.
