Hi everyone! 👋 I’m starting this thread to learn from and share with fellow ecologists, researchers, and conservation professionals. I’m particularly interested in practical frameworks and tools you're using in your work. Here are a few specific areas I’d love input on: Species Distribution Modelling (SDM): What frameworks or methodologies are you using for SDM in your projects? Are there any tools or libraries (e.g., MaxEnt, BIOMOD, R packages) you’d recommend? Forest Fire Monitoring: Is anyone here working on pre- and post-fire mapping? Would love to hear about your workflow, including any tools, remote sensing methods, or data sources you use (e.g., Sentinel, MODIS, Google Earth Engine). Essential Tools for Ecologists: What are some tools, platforms, or datasets you’ve found especially useful in your ecological research or fieldwork? Bonus points for open-source resources or lesser-known gems! Please feel free to respond to any (or all) of the above. Looking forward to learning from your experiences and building a resourceful thread for everyone here! 🌱🌍
