Abstract: Abstract Habitat loss and fragmentation from conversion to agriculture are known threats to grassland species. However, continued agricultural intensification may further reduce a species distribution and realized niche. Here, we create species distribution models (SDMs)… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The ‘niche reduction hypothesis’ (NRH) is based on the idea that the realized niche of a declining species is reduced by threats that are mediated by environmental, biotic and evolutionary processes. The hypothesis was… read more here.
