This book introduces the key stages of niche-based habitat suitability model building, evaluation and prediction. Extensive examples using R support students and researchers to quantify ecological niches and predict species distributions with their own data. A website at www.unil.ch/hsdm contains example codes and supporting material.

Antoine Guisan is Professor at the Université de Lausanne, Switzerland, where he leads the ECOSPAT Spatial Ecology group. Besides being a specialist in habitat suitability and distribution models, his interests also include ecological niche dynamics in space and time, community and multitrophic modeling, very high resolution spatial modeling in mountain environments, and applications of models to environmental decision-making and transfer of scientific knowledge to society.
