TreeMig: modelling spatio-temporal forest dynamics from stand to continental scale

A forest landscape model including spatial interactions allows to simulate forest dynamics and migration for various applications 

Background

Spatio-temporal vegetation dynamics, including plant species migration, play important roles in species range dynamics, carbon sequestration, climate-biosphere feedback, and biodiversity in climate change. To estimate future vegetation dynamics, large-scale spatiotemporal vegetation models simulating plant migration are essential.
