Ecological forecasting. Redefined.
A team of scientists and software developers focused on increasing the accessibility of ecological models to decision makers.

Great to see collaboration across agencies and buzz around connecting science to decision-making. We're excited to see how this tool gets picked up across Ontario (and beyond)!

Thanks to our fantastic workshop moderators, @afilazzola.bsky.social and Carina Rauen Firkowski!

We've integrated this open-source framework into SyncroSim to make it easier to design transparent, scalable conservation workflows. At last week's workshop, we led a deep dive with folks from Ontario’s MNR and MECP, using the example of mapping climate refugia for cold-water species.

This is a big step toward fully web-based ecological modeling workflows. Stay tuned for updates!

Why this matters:
➡️ Expose your published model's inputs for greater transparency
➡️ Cross-platform access, including mobile
➡️ Simplified collaboration on models
➡️ No more software setup hurdles

During this in-person course, you’ll learn how to build and run wildfire risk models using BurnP3+, the open-source #SyncroSim package 🔥 Topics include:

➡️ Burn probability theory
➡️ Spatially-explicit fire modeling
➡️ Comparing scenarios
➡️ Visualizing results w/ SyncroSim Cloud
➡️ Automating w/ R

We're piloting this project in the Brigalow Belt, one of Australia’s biodiversity hotspots. Together with local experts, we’re prototyping models that forecast ecosystem responses to land use and climate — giving decision-makers a clearer baseline for assessing restoration outcomes.

The goal? Build robust, transparent tools for measuring ecosystem change. Our team at ApexRMS is working with CSIRO scientists to turn conceptual ecological models into quantitative STSMs using #SyncroSim and the ST-Sim package.
