Planned BioModel presentation to 'Agro2008'
On February 15, 2008 the Agrosphere Ecology and Ecological Control Department (NAU) invited BioModel team to demonstrate planned training package on biodiversity modeling to participants of ‘Agro 2008’ exhibition, that will take place in Kyiv this year. BioModel will submit presentation ‘Agrobiodiversity Modelling in Ukraine Agrosphere: CLUE-s, MSA, LCCD etc.’

Final MSA map is calculated
Final Mean Species Abundance map of the remaining biodiversity in Ukraine (2000): Mean MSA value – 32.4% (0,324407296).Revised methodology was applied (by GIS modular with combined LU classes application; https://biomodel.info/?p=103). Final map image looks very similar to Landuse MSA. Obviously landuse is the dominant pressure causing the biodiversity loss process.

Land Use MSA is calculated
LU MSA map (new version) During the ‘GIS modular’ manual compilation new LU MSA (biodiversity loss from land use; picture above) was calculated. More details available because of a new approach: https://biomodel.info/?p=103 . You can compare the new LU MSA with LU MSA from previous run (picture below). LU MSA Read more…

Combined GLOBIO3 and 'land use' classes
Different GLOBIO3 land use classes combination was applied taking into account location of agrolandscapes in different ‘nature-ag-zone’. For instance agrolandscapes within ‘Polissya’ nature-ag-zone include several LCC i.e. ‘extensive agriculture’ and ‘agro-forestry’ in equal part approximately. Logically, for the ‘Steppe zone’ it is advisable to take into account (for the modelling) Read more…

Bilingual book title was updated
Since the bilingual book suppose to be completely acceptable as the textbook of “Landscape Ecology”, which is official University’s discipline, the composite authors decided to update the title. Instead of the “Training package on application of pressure based biodiversity modelling for national and regional educational purposes” it approximately will be Read more…
