Abstract:Spatio-temporal models are widely used in many research areas from ecology to epidemiology. However, most covariance functions describe spatial relationships based on Euclidean distance only. In this paper, we introduce the R package SSNbayes for fitting Bayesian spatio-temporal models and making predictions on branching stream networks. SSNbayes provides a linear regression framework with multiple options for incorporating spatial and temporal autocorrelation. Spatial dependence is captured using stream dista… Show more
