There has been an impressive progress in biodiversity science over the last fifteen years to predict the impacts of global changes on range shifts, extinction risks and the future distribution of biodiversity. The demand for simulations of "biodiversity scenarios" has pushed ecology, traditionally focused on the description and understanding of processes, towards a more predictive science. Despite the enthusiasm for these scenarios, most of the modelling approaches are still criticized for not integrating key processes known to impact biodiversity distribution and key ecosystem processes. The general objective of my research program is to contribute the development of theories and modelling tools to better predict global change impacts on biodiversity and the key services it provides to humans.

在过去的十五年中，生物多样性科学取得了令人印象深刻的进步，以预测全球变化对范围变化，灭绝风险和生物多样性的未来分布的影响。对“生物多样性场景”模拟的需求将生态学推向了对过程的描述和理解，而将生态学推向了更具预测性的科学。尽管对这些情况充满热情，但大多数建模方法仍然因不整合已知会影响生物多样性分布和关键生态系统过程的关键过程而受到批评。我的研究计划的一般目标是贡献理论和建模工具的开发，以更好地预测全球变化对生物多样性的影响及其为人类提供的关键服务。
