Combining Niche and Dispersal in a Simple Model (NDM) of Species Distribution
Figure 7
NDM prediction of the effect of the destruction of habitats surrounding the forest.
(a) Mean probability of occurrence of each bird species in the Vanera valley forest before destruction (black line), and ratio of the mean probabilities of occurrence after and before destruction for each species (grey bars). The meaning of the species labels is indicated in figure 2b, with a colour code indicating the group to which each species belongs, as defined in figure 3. (b) Distribution of species richness per cell in the forest before (grey bars) and after (black bars) the destruction of habitats surrounding the forest. The simulated distributions result from 1000 simulations.
