Abstract
The Deliverable analyses four case studies and builds different approaches of Ecological Niche Models. In all the cases habitat typology is the main variable that emerges as most significant in explaining the model of ecological niche. The results have both theoretical importance (for instance, the use of GHCs improves the prediction of the model for the distribution of some species in Alta Murgia Parco Nazionale) and practical relevance for stakeholders (for instance, the models enable generation of a risk map predicting areas of potential vulnerability to damage by wild boars in Alta Murgia). Presence-absence species distribution data on Alta Murgia were provided by the management Authority of the National Park (i.e., Ente Parco).
