On placement with the Scottish Invasive Species Initiative
In April and May this year I was on placement with the Scottish Invasive Species Initiative (SISI). I’ve written a post about what I got up to for the SISI b...
Classic ecological models in Stan: two-species Levins metapopulation model (mutualism version)
In this post, I cover how to fit a version of the two-species Levins metapopulation model in Stan, as well as how to use R to simulate data to fit the model ...
Processing camera trap images using Windows batch files
In this post, I explain how to use Windows batch files to perform several useful operations on camera trap images - for example adding a prefix to, removing ...
Classic ecological models in Stan: exponential and logistic growth
In this post, I cover how to fit two simple models of population growth using Stan: exponential growth, and logistic growth. I also cover how to use R to sim...
An occupancy model with a Gaussian process for spatial autocorrelation in Stan
In this post I walk through an occupancy model which uses a Gaussian process to model spatial autocorrelation. The model is coded in Stan. I start off with a...
