Another momentous day in the CRAN R universe: we got one of our main packages -- reproducible -- back on after several weeks off. Some nice new features too! See NEWS as https://t.co/4r88wxCqh5 @PFC_CFS @PredictiveEcol

Our latest paper just hit the web! This one is about how we have used SpaDES to build in seamless validation for complex models. We witnessed Occam's Razor in action -- simpler is better, but only when we need simple outputs! @PFC_CFS @CeresBarros https://t.co/9Ion4Q9rFQ

While it will take a while to walk through these examples, I appreciate them and the discussions about them.

Really cool work bringing trait diversity to forest harvesting using the modified TRIAD. Gives better resilience without economic losses #ESA2022 #CSEE2022 @yboulanger2

Ooooh Constrained GAMs! Thanks to Alison Ketz for opening our eyes to this since our nonlinear regressions are so unreliable to estimate. #ESA2022 @AlisonKetz

From Anna Sjodin: *Disease forecasting*: while it is very difficult to forecast the next outbreak, we need to do something to understand the ecology to make small improvements, to detect incipient processes #EFI #ESA2022 @PredictiveEcol

when you are at the table making decisions, look around the room and ask who is not at the table... Be careful about erasure. "Embracing a new space at #ESA2022 for indiginous knowledge" says @IgnaceLab @PredictiveEcol

Inspired by indiginous speakers, we need to animate our ecological science into stories so they are retained better by the public #CSEE2022 #ESA2022

Excited to be at #ESA2022 #CSEE2022 . Learning about a diversity of indiginous perspectives on applied ecology. I am hearing a lot of hope about weaving western science and traditional ecological knowledge

All of this is starting to be available through an "evergreen" web app where you can look at results with and without climate change. Please do check it out, and let us know what think! https://t.co/LVufRCHnOz

BUT: What about forest harvesting? What about carbon? How does this affect all of the above? Well, we are modelling that too using an open source forest harvest model and forest carbon model #CBMCFS3! (led by G. Paradis and @cboisvenue)
