New blog post: analyse and interrogate State-Space Vector Autoregressive models (VARs) in {mvgam}: ecogambler.netlify.app/blog/vector-au…. {mvgam} handles multivariate non-Gaussian series with missing data, nonlinear effects and complex dependence, all thanks to the magic of Stan #rstats

📖Published📖 New research article now out! Detecting stochasticity in population time series using a non-parametric test of intrinsic predictability 👇 doi.org/10.1111/2041-2…

One un-questioned research practice (UQRP) that does as much harm as QRPs: Ignoring sampling bias & selection effects. Nice paper showing a way to be transparent & analytical about the problem: "Graphical Causal Models for Survey Inference" doi.org/10.1177/004912…

Our article "The road to integrate climate change projections with regional land‐use–biodiversity models" led by Juliano Sarmento Cabral with many others including now published in People and Nature dx.doi.org/10.1002/pan3.1…

Mixing paleoecology and modern ecological theory for insights into major climate driven changes to biodiversity in earth's history. Awesome collaboration and more to come!

Do you LOVE Thermal Performace Curves? Has your thirst for TPC models not been quenched by rTPC+ nls.multistart (besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…)? Then check this out! nature.com/articles/s4146… Thanks to @DGKontopoulos for conceiving and leading this model fitting madness!

AVOTREX: A global dataset of extinct birds and their traits. 🦤🌍 The dataset includes 610 extinct birds from last 130k years. This dataset includes details on species traits, mirroring the morphological data available for extant species in AVONET (1/8) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ge…

New opportunity to work with great colleagues at SLU Aqua on the risks of extreme weather and climate change on marine ecosystems and 🇸🇪 fisheries - slu.se/en/about-slu/w…. Modelling, stakeholder engagement and risk analysis. Reach out if you have any questions 🐟🎣💻

LLMs are powerful sequence modeling tools! They not only can generate language, but also actions for playing video games, or numerical values for forecasting time series. Can we help LLMs better model these continuous "tokens"? Our answer: Fourier series! Let me explain… 🧵(1/n)
