A new approach for scaling vegetation dynamics

A novel approach for scaling vegetation dynamics based on deep learning was published recently in Methods in Ecology and Evolution. The modeling framework developed by Werner Rammer and Rupert Seidl allows a consistent scaling of local vegetation dynamics (with abundant data and high process understading) to much larger spatial extents (think: country to continental level). At the core, the model harnesses deep learning, which is an exciting new branch of machine learning that revolutionized many fields of computer science in the last years.
