Kursus i rumlig modellering / Species Distribution Modelling in the Marine Environment

Allaatigisaq:
Species Distribution Modelling (also known as Habitat Modelling, Predictive Habitat Modelling, Ecological Niche Modelling, Habitat Suitability Modelling and Essential Habitat Modelling) is becoming increasingly widely used in marine biology. This course aims to provide an introduction to the concept and application of Species Distribution Modelling (SDM) in the marine environment, and how to integrate Species Distribution Modelling with GIS. This includes selection of environmental variables, the creation of raster data layers of environmental variables in a GIS-based environment, processing survey data in GIS, creating spatial visualisations ans predictions from SDMs and validting the predictive ability of SDMs. The practical session will incolde working through a complete SDM project from start to finish, including the creation of an SDM using Generalised Additive Modelling (GAM).
