Identifying which species and ecosystems are found in a location and how they are changing over time is the basic information we need to unlock positive biodiversity outcomes. We leverage our expertise in cutting-edge ecological and evolutionary modeling techniques, AI, geospatial mapping, and time series analysis to derive metrics of biodiversity across scales of space and time.
Metrics Services
Species-based
- Generate and validate estimates of current range, occupancy and/or abundance of target species from species distribution models or occupancy models using machine learning and other standard approaches
- Estimate historical and potential future changes in species’ distributions and population trends in response to environmental changes
- Estimate and analyze species extinction risks
Place-based
- Estimate historic, current, and potential future trends in the richness, endemism, and rarity of ecological communities using community-level data and methods
- Identify local species and ecosystems at risk of extinction
- Estimate taxonomic, functional, and evolutionary diversity of local ecological communities
- Identify priority areas based on the uniqueness and irreplaceability of local species and ecosystems
- Quantify condition and intactness of local habitats and ecosystems
