Testing the efficacy of downscaling in species distribution modelling: a comparison between MaxEnt and Favourability Function models

Statistical downscaling is used to improve the knowledge of spatial distributions from broad–scale to fine–scale maps with higher potential for conservation planning. We assessed the effectiveness of downscaling in two commonly used species distribution models: Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) and the Favou...
