The IPCC has long used model ensembles, & we suggest IPBES, policy makers, etc use ensembles for ecosystem services Our works shows no specific ES model is a priori the best & that ensembles always perform better than single models See this paper & 🧵 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Evidence shows that #ensembles of #ecosystemservice #models are more accurate than using a single #model chosen at random (e.g. #InVEST, #ARIES etc). But it takes A LOT of resources to work across multiple platforms - creating an information bias toward those with these resources

Everyone has a mobile phone right? And everyone likes lemurs? So everyone should be interested in our new paper @naturesustainab which explores whether one of Madagascar’s biggest mines has achieved No Net Loss of biodiversity. 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4189…

Do you use #ecosystemservice #models? If so our new paper shows that using multiple models together in an 'ensemble' provides up to greater accuracy - especially if you use a weighted ensemble. authors.elsevier.com/a/1eHuT_oIyRWJ… This video explains all:
