Popis: Variable selection in ecological niche modelling can influence model projections to a degree comparable to variations in future climate scenarios. Consequently, it is important to select feature (variable) subsets for optimizing model performance and characterizing variability. We utilize a novel random subset feature selection algorithm (RSFSA) for niche modelling to select an ensemble of optimally sized feature subsets of limited correlation (|r
