Thank you for this...I always consider soil though my colleagues always think otherwise. Just a quick one, do we expect some of the soil properties to change in the foreseeable future such as 2050 or 2100? Do we have future soil layers as is the case with climatic layers? If not, is soil relevant in mapping potential future niches/habitat/distribution?
Yes, soils are definitely relevant for future ENMs. The species can have plenty of climatically suitable areas in the future but in places were the soil is not in its tolerance range. It is too hard to model soil change, but yes, soil interact with climatic conditions and soil microbiota, plant roots etc and thus, it change through time. However, this process is usually a slow thus, it is reasonable to do future ENMs using current soil layers (Check, e.g. Zuquim et al. 2019 in Plant and Soil). Certainly better than leave soil out!
@@gabrielazuquim777 Thank you so much for the response and explicit explanation. I am happy I joined the ENM2020 training and got a chance to learn about soil layers by Dr. Gabriela Zuquim!!

Great and straightforward presentation! I didn't know about the SoilGrids dataset, this helps a lot, thanks!
