Climate change and habitat loss or degradation are some of the greatest threats that species face today, often resulting in range shifts. Species traits have been discussed as important predictors of range shifts, with the identification of general trends being of great interest to conservation efforts. However, studies reviewing relationships between traits and range shifts have questioned the existence of such generalized trends, due to mixed results and weak correlations, as well as analytical shortcomings. The aim of this study was to test this relationship empirically, using analytical approaches that account for common sources of bias when assessing range trends.

时空综合贝叶斯物种分布模型揭示性状和范围变化之间缺乏广泛的关系

气候变化和栖息地丧失或退化是物种当今面临的最大威胁，通常会导致分布范围发生变化。物种特征已被视为范围变化的重要预测因素，而总体趋势的识别对保护工作具有重要意义。然而，由于结果好坏参半、相关性弱以及分析缺陷，回顾性状与范围变化之间关系的研究对这种普遍趋势的存在提出了质疑。本研究的目的是通过实证检验这种关系，使用在评估范围趋势时考虑常见偏差来源的分析方法。
