Abstract
Carmelo Bonnanella, PhD candidate & research assistant at OpenGeoHub, presented the results of modeling species distribution maps for both potential and actual natural vegetation through spatiotemporal machine learning using a data-driven, robust, objective and fully reproducible workflow. The presentation focussed on the benefits of using ensemble machine learning for species distribution modeling to capture patterns of niche changes in both space and time: yearly (from 2000 to 2020) probability distribution maps for both potential and actual natural vegetation were shown for forest tree species that live in different climatic conditions across Europe. The high spatial (30 m) and temporal (1 year) resolution of the outputs should allow us to enhance and better understand the patterns of niche change.
