Ecological Forecasting

Ecological forecasting is the scientific practice of predicting future changes in ecosystems and wildlife populations based on current data and trends. It combines information from various fields, including biology, climate science, and data analytics, to assess how changes in the environment—such as climate change, pollution, or habitat loss—will impact ecosystems. By developing models that simulate potential future scenarios, researchers can help policymakers and conservationists make informed decisions to protect biodiversity and manage natural resources effectively for sustainable futures.
