9th edition of the SDM course

It is now becoming a tradition for Babak Naimi and Miguel Araújo to hold the SDM course in November. 2023 will not be an exception and the course is now announced and opened for registration. Early bird tickets available on the first-come-first-served basis. To read more about the course, see here.   . . . [ Read More ]

2022 Edition of the SDM course

We are thrilled to announce the 8th edition of the “Species Distributions Modelling Course: Concepts, Methods, Applications, and Challenges” that Babak Naimi and I give regularly. The previous edition had a limited presencial participation owing to the pandemic COVID-19 and we inaugurated the online participation. While online participation is now maintained, we strongly encourage those that can . . . [ Read More ]

Climate change for journalists’ workshop: a success

Seven journalists from Norway met seven journalists from Portugal to exchange experience and discuss the science of climate change with environmental journalist Ricardo Garcia, and myself, and with extra inspiration and knowledge sharing by experts in specific domains of climate change modelling, oceans and climate change, fire and fire spread under climate change, climate change mitigation, and . . .
