Resumen:
The field of distributional ecology has seen considerable recent
attention, particularly surrounding the theory, protocols, and tools for
Ecological Niche Modeling (ENM) or Species Distribution Modeling (SDM).
Such analyses have grown steadily over the past two decades-including a
maturation of relevant theory and key concepts-but methodological
consensus has yet to be reached. In response, and following an online
course taught in Spanish in 2018, we designed a comprehensive
English-language course covering much of the underlying theory and
methods currently applied in this broad field. Here, we summarize that
course, ENM2020, and provide links by which resources produced for it
can be accessed into the future. ENM2020 lasted 43 weeks, with
presentations from 52 instructors, who engaged with >2500 participants
globally through >14,000 hours of viewing and >90,000 views of
instructional video and question-and-answer sessions. Each major topic
was introduced by an ``Overview'' talk, followed by more detailed
lectures on subtopics. The hierarchical and modular format of the course
permits updates, corrections, or alternative viewpoints, and generally
facilitates revision and reuse, including the use of only the Overview
lectures for introductory courses. All course materials are free and
openly accessible (CC-BY license) to ensure these resources remain
available to all interested in distributional ecology.
