VII workshop ecological niche modeling

For several years Coordination Unit of GBIF Spain organizes workshops ecological niche modeling. Yo I went to the first one in 2005, taught by Dr. David Draper, and was an important first step to improve the rudimentary knowledge of distribution modeling was at that time. I also attended the same workshop in 2007, this time conducted by Dr. Francisco J. Bonet, and by chance was the beginning of the career opportunities that I enjoy at this time (but that's another story.)

The last three years The workshop was conducted by Dr. Elisa Liras ( here is the content of the last ), but this time it seems that Elisa was not available, contacted Curro Bonet, and he was kind enough to spend the gift to me.

So 10 to 13 May this year I will be in the computer room of the Royal Botanic Gardens Madrid giving the workshop.

I am currently preparing the agenda, so for now I can not give many details. Yes I can say that (if all goes as it should) work on Ubuntu (the virtual machine prepared for subject "Ecoinformatics" ) And as main tools we use MaxEnt , OpenModeller , + Quantum GIS GRASS and R . Try from the basics of distribution models to more advanced applications, such as invasibility studies, effect of climate change on species distribution, and give us time.

If you are interested, stay tuned to the section "Education and Outreach" (not yet open enrollment period.)

Greetings and see you in Madrid!
