A nonlinear mixed‐effects modeling approach for ecological data: Using temporal dynamics of vegetation moisture as an example
Abstract Increasingly, often ecologist collects data with nonlinear trends, heterogeneous variances, temporal correlation, and hierarchical structure. Nonlinear mixed‐effects models offer a flexible approach to such data, but the estimation and interpretation of these models present challenges, part...
