Koala bioclimatic suitability baseline model (KBSM) was developed using recent and historical records, then projected to 2030 and 2070 by replacing baseline climatic predictors with projected climatic predictors. KBSM is an environment niche model developed using MaxEnt. The KBSM was fitted using the koala occurrences records, the model predictors surfaces (covariates) are maximum temperature, annual precipitation, soil ph, soil organic carbon, and available water capacity. The model predicts the bioclimatic suitability of habitat within the study area, based on the above 5 covariates. The suitability is expressed along a scale from zero to one (low to high).
