It sometimes take months to model the effects of conservations actions on a complex ecosystem. But just-published research led by Centre PhD Candidate Sarah Vollert uses the latest #DataScience techniques to cut that time from months to hours! research.qut.edu.au/qutcds/2024/03… PLOS One

How much does a model cost? Our new paper reports the costs of different ecosystem models to support fisheries. We should consider cost-benefit tradeoffs when selecting modelling frameworks for ecological decisions doi.org/10.1111/jfb.15…. free version 👉 arxiv.org/abs/2403.17446

We tell decision-makers you need to specify objectives accounting for costs. Shouldn't we hold modelers to the same standards? Different models have different benefits & costs. See our new paper on cost-benefit analyses of ecosystem models for fisheries doi.org/10.1111/jfb.15…

I'm done with my Thesis. That's the tweet.

Congratulations to Sarah Vollert for best ECR Poster and Alex Browning for best ECR talk at #bioinference2024 (and Raiha Browning for great MCing) 🇦🇺 all well deserved!

New modelling suggests that the balance between algae and invertebrates is shifting, with the potential to alter these ecosystems in profound and irreversible ways. arcsaef.com/story/as-antar…
