Macroecology often supplements fieldwork and can lead to surprising discoveries. In Madagascar, satellite data was used to develop models for chameleon species and predict them in areas beyond their known ranges. As a result, scientists investigating these areas found several new sister species.

By comparing community studies made in deserts around the world, macroecologists can determine the greatest threats to a desert species such as this banner-tailed kangaroo rat.
