Abstract
Bioclimatic modeling method MaxEnt is tested to micro-habitats occupying objects on the example of five moss species. Modeling is done out on a planetary and regional scale. Results are discussed.
Highlights
Revealing of species distribution patterns is one of the key problems of contemporary botanical researches; one of possible approaches is the analysis of the relationships of species' habitats and environmental factors
The maximum entropy method MaxEnt is an effective algorithm for modeling of ecological and spatial distribution of species [1, 2]
When we examine distribution of smallsized objects confined to micro-habitats and neglecting main climate factors, this method applicability is not so obvious: publications about bioclimatic modeling of moss species areas are rare [4, 5, 6]
Summary
Revealing of species distribution patterns is one of the key problems of contemporary botanical researches; one of possible approaches is the analysis of the relationships of species' habitats and environmental factors. Regional model has shown the importance of variables bio6, bio1, and bio7 (tab.1): minimum temperature of the coldest month of the year is critical; according to the response curve, the probability of species finding falls sharply with its decrease; the optimum of the species lies in a narrow range of the average annual temperature and the annual temperature amplitude.
