Dates: 22–24 September 2025 - Live sessions: 15:00–18:00 (Berlin time) + guided self-practice This course introduces the use of BART models for species distribution modeling (SDM), highlighting their advantages over traditional machine learning approaches. Through a combination of lectures and hands-on exercises in R, participants will: Learn how BARTs work and why they excel in SDM Use the embarcadero and dbarts packages for model training, evaluation, and projection Explore predictor effects and project species presence across time or regions Registration and details: [ https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/barts/ ]( https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/barts/ ) Best regards, Carlo -------------------- Carlo Pecoraro, Ph.D Physalia-courses DIRECTOR i...@physalia-courses.org mobile: +49 17645230846 [ Bluesky ]( https://bsky.app/profile/physaliacourses.bsky.social ) [ Linkedin ]( https://www.linkedin.com/in/physalia-courses-a64418127/ ) [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-sig-Epi@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-epi
