[Predictive Ecology @PredictiveEcol]

Follow @PredictiveEcol as we discover the #science, complexities, and #computation involved in forecasting #ecological #landscapes. We developed the #SpaDES platform in #R for open & reproducible models.

Our goal: integrate ecological data for resource management decisions.

The line-up for panelists looks like a great mix https://t.co/Q45Bexdl8k @PredictiveEcol #halfearthday2023

I've made it to Montreal for my panel discussion about Extreme weather, wildfires, biodiversity and people at the #halfearthday2023
#geobonconf2023. Thanks to @EOWilsonFndtn for the invitation! I'll be talking about @PredictiveEcol. #linkinginformationtoaction

Our latest paper just hit the web! This one is about how we have used SpaDES to build in seamless validation for complex models. We witnessed Occam's Razor in action -- simpler is better, but only when we need simple outputs! @PFC_CFS @CeresBarros

This summer course next year will have a great crew of people and is an exciting topic

[Korryn Bodner, PhD @KorrynBodner]

As announced at #ESA2022 / #CSEE2022, next summer (June 2023), we are hosting a week-long course in Toronto, ON on integrating epidemiological & ecological forecasting into decision-making. For more info and to pre-register: https://t.co/IcW5CMQyx9

[Korryn Bodner, PhD @KorrynBodner]

Interested in forecasting? Want to learn more about using them for decision-making? Come check out our session at #ESA2022 / #CSEE2022 "A comparative perspective on integrating ecological forecasting with decision-making" at 8:00am in Rm 520C.

The North American Forest Ecology Workshop is next week - keep your eyes posted for a KEYNOTE talk from one of the @PredictiveEcol members!

Hint: It is a lead, and 🌟 PI

[Predictive Ecology @PredictiveEcol]

WELL, the @eco4cast conference is wrapping up today, and our @eliotmcintire and @CeresBarros were able to attend! Chatting about #SpaDES & a PERFICT approach to Predictive Ecology.

Happening Right now: The Western Boreal Initiative annual workshop (hosted by yours truly!).

This annual workshop gives updates on our project progress. Today there are a more than 40 participants involved from across Canada.

[Predictive Ecology @PredictiveEcol]

All of this is starting to be available through an "evergreen" web app where you can look at results with and without climate change.

Please do check it out, and let us know what think!
