🧊 Did your model freeze in time? Let’s bring it back to life! Join our hands-on workshop “Building Near-Term Iterative Forecasting Workflows” at #TIBS2026 – Aarhus, 6 Jan 2026 🌍 We’ll explore how to turn static predictions into dynamic, self-updating forecasts. @paniw.bsky.social

Looking forward to what is (in my opinion) the most under appreciated component in ecosystem management/conservation - time lags #BES2024

Heading up to #BES2024 today in Liverpool. Hopefully see lots of you there, and if you are going to be around why not drop in and see some of the group's talks (on #resilience, #seabirds, and #rewilding) @britishecolsoc.bsky.social

I highlighted this in the paper for ordered beta regression, but I think many don't know this: you can estimate ordbetareg *just fine* without obs at the bounds (0 or 1). Maybe your current sample doesn't have 0/1s... but future samples could! Ordbetareg works fine for *any* bounded data. #rstats
