Model landscape change

Simulate and forecast land cover to inform better ecological decisions

Why model land cover change with SyncroSim?

Understanding landscape change is essential to managing ecosystems under pressure from climate, development, and disturbance. SyncroSim provides a powerful and flexible platform for simulating landscape change across time and space—supporting decisions from local conservation planning to large-scale resource management.

Landscape change

Model landscape dynamics of any habitat

From changes in vegetation to land use, build robust models of landscape change using state-and-transition models. SyncroSim helps address key management questions across diverse ecosystems—forests, rangelands, aquatic communities, and urban environments—by simulating land cover change with precision and flexibility.

ST-Sim: Featured package

ST-Sim (or stsim) is the SyncroSim flagship package that enables users to build and run spatially-explicit simulations of landscape change using a state-and-transition simulation model (STSM) approach. ST-Sim supports:

Dynamic landscape modeling: Simulate changes across landscapes while accounting for uncertainties in model projections.
Integrated ecosystem monitoring: Add stock-flow models to track biomass, carbon, and other continuous variables through time and space.
Versatile applications: Connect with other SyncroSim packages to address a range of research and landscape management questions.
