This lecture presents: Rapid increase in woody cover in many savannas; What mechanism can cause rapid woody increase ?; Feedbacks between fire and patches of woody vegetation; Simple model; Effect of fire; Feedbacks between fire and patches of woody vegetation; Kruger National Park: burning plots; Clustering: measuring distances between trees.
This lecture presents: Evaluation (exploring) the SDMs’ performance (behaviour); 15 models (including ensemble approaches) for presence/absence; Model Uncertainty (between model inconsistency); Investigations of model behaviours and provide deeper insights into the causes of varying model performances.
This lecture integrated assessment: Lake Naivasha; Changes in biodiversity of fringe; Lake level fluctuations; Would like to “reconstruct” past‐diversity around the fringe.
