We used the fast NNGP approach I had been developing in my PhD to spatially gap-fill the plant trait data to create a global map of important plant traits with proper uncertainty quantification. Currently, we are looking at ways to incorporate the uncertainty quantified trait values as inputs to Earth System Models (ESMs) – the land component of climate models. Editor’s note: This is the next in our series of interviews with early career statisticians and data scientists.
