Diversity forecasting for Breeding Bird Survey

Research project code for data-intensive approaches to making forecasts for biodiversity.

Running the code

To fully run this code you will need R, a number of R packages including some development releases, and the Jupyter Notebook.

If you don't have Jupyter Notebook installed already we recommend installing the Anaconda Python distribution to get it.

Running install-packages.R should make sure all of the relevant packages are installed including Jupyter Notebook integration. It will not re-install packages that you already have thanks to pacman.

Once everything is installed launch a Jupyter Notebook, using either the start menu of jupyter notebook from the command line, and run forecasting-bbs-R.ipynb.
