Global projection of the potential distribution of X. laevis A) derived from the maximum entropy SDM; B) derived from the ensemble SDM. Probability ranging from moderate (dark blue) to highly suitable (yellow).
Table 2.
Environmentally suitable space given as percent of the world’s surface area for current climatic conditions and projections onto climate change scenarios.
Percentages refer to the SDM-MESS area; values increasing with climate change scenarios are displayed in bold.
