Workshop — Take your species distribution models to the next level with Bayesian non-parametric regression
Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART) are a powerful machine learning technique with very promising applications in ecology and biogeography in general, and in species distribution modelling (SDM)...

Check out our new paper in @EcographyJourna! A big team of #R pkg developers, we show how to improve analysis standards by using different pkgs for species distribution models together, a new pkg to catalog and explore them, and 3 extensive...

Setting a good background region for SDM/ENM can be tricky when survey effort is heavily biased - as it often is. I've implemented some new approaches in #Rstats package fuzzySim. Anyone up for trying them out? modtools.wordpress.com/2024/10/31/d... #gis #gischat #ecology #biogeography #macroecology
Delimiting the modelling background for scattered uneven occurrence data
In species distribution modelling and ecological niche modelling (SDM & ENM), the region from where background or pseudoabsence points are picked is key to how well a model turns out. This regi…

To help students develop a sense of how our disciplines evolve, we should also teach from papers that seem a little outdated 🧪

I love A Tribe Called Quest. But there isn't a lot of hip hop like that anymore. Whenever you hear these old school beats now, it is likely as part of a...
