Through a recently published paper in Nature Climate Change, scientists at the Ecological Forecasting Initiative - including BU's Michael Dietz, as lead author, and Yannis Paschalidis - call for a new vision of data-driven environmental decision-making and greater investment in ecological forecasting in order to combat climate change. Dietz and his fellow scientists are working to advance the field through a process that enables them to continually update model predictions with observed data in order to improve our ability to foresee what may happen in the future, predicting changes in ecosystems and subsequent impacts on communities.
