报告摘要：

The importance of habitat suitability predictions of where species are potentially distributed were well recognized, with which practitioners could establish protected areas for conservation or plan field survey of introduced species. However, the date of when species would be active across geography were often overlooked, without which we might miss proper timeline for action intervention. Putting phenological dates on the map would provide both geographic distribution of species and the date of their phenological activity. With the increasing availability of daily grid data, we are now able to put phenology event dates on the map, with which we could expect when and where to find species. In addition, niche and distributional model techniques are now widely used in habitat suitability predictions, there are questions remain unresolved of using these suitability predictions for planning biodiversity conservation or invasive species management.

In this presentation, I will (1) briefly talked about my past work on niche and distributional modeling applications; I will (2) focus on recent work on using niche model prediction for planning field survey of invasive species, where I will introduce my new enmRoute R package, together with the Shinyapp that we developed to facilitate its application; I will (3) demonstrate my ongoing work on phenological event mapping, where I will show two approaches (i.e., process and correlative approaches) that could put phenological events on the map: the former is by relating species’ temperature development threshold and thermal requirements to the daily grid temperature; whereas the latter seeks to predict the date of phenological event via statistical approach using citizen data. I expect these techniques could greatly support invasive species management and biodiversity conservation by responding when and where to expect species.
