Incorporating intraspecific variation into species distribution models improves climate change analyses of a widespread West African tree species (Pterocarpus erinaceus Poir, Fabaceae)

Incorporating intraspecific variation into species distribution models improves climate change analyses of a widespread West African tree species (Pterocarpus erinaceus Poir, Fabaceae)

Climate change is predicted to affect species distribution worldwide. Most of the methods used to evaluate such impact so far assume that species respond to the environmental gradients in a uniform way along their distribution range. Because populations occupying different niches may differ in their...
