Fig. 1 Exhibition of ecological niche modeling and species distribution modeling. Ecological niche model refers to niche model calibrated in native area (① and ②) and transferred into the introduced area (③), whereas species distribution model refers to niche model calibration without transferring across space (① and ②, dashed area). A, Native suitable area but not colonized due to dispersal limitation; B, Native suitable area but not colonized due to biotic interaction; C, Suitable area in introduced area; D, Realized niche; E, Fundamental niche.
Fig. 2 Effect of environmental space dimensionality on native model transferability (A case study of Halyomorpha halys, adopted from Zhu et al., 2012a). Niche models were constructed based on native range of H. halys and transferred into the US. White dots were used to fit niche model whereas black dots used to test model. Dark color represents high suitability, and light indicates low suitability. Left panel using 10 variables (A), and right panel using six variables (B). When using less environmental variables, niche model transferability was greatly improved.
Fig. 3 Effect of geographic background space on the transferability of niche model: a case study of Spartina alterniflora (adopted from Zhu et al., 2013a). Left panel exhibited the squared (A) and coastal (B) areas used in native niche model calibration. Niche model based on the coastal areas showed high transferability in capturing the introduced records (right panel).
