Species Distribution Modeling for Conservation Workshop

This event has now ended.

Ashwin Sivakumar will be conducting a hands-on training workshop on machine learning in R for species distribution models (SDM). The workshop will be delivered as part of the American Statistical Association Orange County Long Beach Chapter Data Science Symposium and will cover the following:

  • Introduction to species distribution models.

  • Run through the R code for loading the species and bioclimatic environment data

  • Walk through a very simple modeling sample using the Random Forest modeling method using R

  • Show the results and explain the new species distribution output.

Zoom link, R code and data will be provided to all the participants ahead of the workshop.
