NEON-NIWO-misclass

Here we develop a joint classification-occupancy model for multispecies survey datasets. We illustrate the model using carabid pitfall trap data from the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) collected at Niwot Ridge, CO, USA.

The associated manuscript has been accepted at Methods in Ecology & Evolution.

Prerequisites

To run this compendium, you'll need R installed/

Quickstart

This compendium produces the article's figures based off of the carabid case study results.

It does not produce the paper nor simulation output. For simulation output, run simulations.R. This will take a long time depending on your CPU bandwidth. For simulation figures, run sim_figs.R
