Interannual climate variability improves niche estimates for ectothermic but not endothermic species
Abstract Climate is an important limiting factor of species’ niches and it is therefore regularly included in ecological applications such as species distribution models (SDMs). Climate predictors are often used in the form of long-term mean values, yet many species experience wide climatic variatio...
