Modeling Working Group
The BioGeoSCAPES Modeling Working Group integrates computational and theoretical approaches to investigate marine microbial metabolisms and their environmental drivers across scales. This diverse team brings expertise in dynamical systems, network and statistical modeling, constraint-based methods, and AI/machine learning. Together they aim to link models ranging from cellular to global ocean scale and collaborate with experimentalists and observationalists to better constrain model parameters and enhance predictive understanding.
Modeling Workshop
Thanks to those of you who joined us in Woods Hole September 10-12, 2025, for the in-person Modeling Workshop, co-sponsored by AccelNet BioGeoSCAPES and C-CoMP. We enjoyed three days of oral and poster presentations, plenary discussions and breakout activities designed to advance integration of models across scales to address BioGeoSCAPES- and C-CoMP-relevant questions. Scroll down to learn more about the ideas developed during and after the workshop! Learn more about C-CoMP by visiting https://ccomp-stc.org/.
Modeling Webinar Series
Interested in learning to integrate models to address BioGeoSCAPES relevant questions? You aren't alone! More than 450 researchers from 30 nations joined us for this three-part live webinar series. Recordings are now available on the BioGeoSCAPES YouTube channel! Originally recorded on May 13, 20, and 27, 2025, this series discusses biogeochemical, cellular scale, and network & statistical modeling approaches with presentations and moderated discussions.
