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.

过去十五年来，生物多样性科学在预测全球变化对生物多样性范围变化、灭绝风险和未来分布的影响方面取得了令人瞩目的进展。对“生物多样性情景”模拟的需求推动了传统上注重描述和理解过程的生态学转向更具预测性的科学。尽管人们对这些情景充满热情，但大多数建模方法仍然因没有整合已知的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。我的研究计划的总体目标是促进理论和建模工具的发展，以更好地预测全球变化对生物多样性及其为人类提供的关键服务的影响。
