ISEC 2024 will be held in Swansea (UK). Exciting science and many activities are coming 📊🌊. Visit our website to know more about the conference: statisticalecology.org Abstract submission and registration will open soon! Stay on your toes!

Ryan Chisholm nicely summarizes our nature article on the Janzen-Connell hypothesis in this blog post: ryanchisholm.com/2024/02/29/new…

Dichtestress verstärkt Baumsterben, enthüllt internat. Forscherteam unter Florian Hartig (Uni Regensburg) & Lisa Hülsmann (Universität Bayreuth). Neue Einblicke in trop. Waldvielfalt - wichtige Einblicke in die Mechanismen, die Artenvielfalt in Wäldern beeinflussen. sohub.io/21o3

It was a real pleasure! Thanks for the hospitality Functional Agrobiodiversity & Agroecology!

Now assigned to Volume 39, Issue 3, March 2024, Pages 280-293 in Trends in Ecology & Evolution doi.org/10.1016/j.tree…

cito v1.1 #rstats package for deep neural networks (#DL #DNN) (with formula syntax) is now available on #CRAN. New features include likelihoods such as the negative binomial distribution and easy hyperparameter tuning: cran.r-project.org/web/packages/c… 1/4

Great to see our study on fitting a dynamic range model for birds led by Anne Malchow during her PhD at Macroecology lab @unipotsdam now available at Ecological Applications. The #Bayesian Model calibration uses the BayesianTools #Rstats package cran.r-project.org/web/packages/B…

Our new study on a #Bayesian calibrating of #treeRegeneration in a process-based forest model using the BayesianTools #rstats package now out at GeoModelDevelopment. Led by Yannek Käber with Harald Bugmann at Forest Ecology ETH. For a link to the study, see below the tweet of the first author!

Back in the office after having a great time at University of Oxford discussing "Evolutionary and genomic design principles for durable genetic control of crop pathogens". Thanks Tim Barraclough Nichola Hawkins & Joris Alkemade for hosting us so graciously at Magdalen College

Have a look at this News & Views article about our recent nature paper.

In our Ecography software note ‘cito': an R package for training neural networks using ‘torch' (#CRAN #rstats) led by Christian Ames and together with Florian Hartig we present a new package for fitting and interpreting #DNN (#DL) doi.org/10.1111/ecog.0… Theoretical Ecology Lab @ Uni Regensburg 1/5

Our study (led by Anne Malchow, Macroecology lab @unipotsdam) on fitting dynamic range models for birds now finally published in Volume34, Issue4, June 2024 at Ecological Applications esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ea…
