Predicting food webs across space while being able to incorporate our uncertainty is an important goal of network ecology, and one goal of this working group was to try to 1) work out how we can propagate uncertainty as we go from a country-level metaweb down into smaller localised units, and 2) use this uncertainty to help us identify places where we should be sampling networks on the ground.
Designing a Collective Prototype of Future Tropical and Subtropical Science
This started as a workshop session at the 2021 ATBC annual meeting specifically aimed at discussing the opportunities ad challenges experienced by scientists, but specifically those from the (sub)tropics, starting with a speculation experiment to prototype the future of the next generation of tropical scientists.
