使用已知的物种和相关建模方法已成为一种常见的模式，在大规模的生态学和地理学，但重要的方面的方法仍然很少探索的概念基础。在这里，我们探讨的概念和经验的原因背后的选择范围的研究领域在这样的分析，并提供实用的，但概念上合理的，推理这样的决定。我们断言，在相关时间段内可供感兴趣的物种访问的区域代表了模型开发，测试和比较的理想区域。(C)2011 Elsevier B.V.保留所有权利。
Using known occurrences of species and correlational modeling approaches has become a common paradigm in broad-scale ecology and biogeography, yet important aspects of the methodology remain little-explored in terms of conceptual basis. Here, we explore the conceptual and empirical reasons behind choice of extent of study area in such analyses, and offer practical, but conceptually justified, reasoning for such decisions. We assert that the area that has been accessible to the species of interest over relevant time periods represents the ideal area for model development, testing, and comparison. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.
