Spatial differences in predicted Phalaris arundinacea (reed canarygrass) occurrence in floodplain forest understories by John T. Delaney, M. Van Appledorn, N. R. De Jager, K. L. Bouska, J. J. Rohweder

“…We used an ensemble of species distribution models including Bayesian additive regression trees, boosted trees, and random forest algorithms to predict habitat suitability for reed canarygrass in forest understories across the Upper Mississippi River floodplain (~41,000 ha). Data from forest inventory study plots with reed canarygrass presence and absence were combined with 10 hypothesized environmental predictors of reed canarygrass invasion. …”
