Bayesian spatial modelling of geostatistical data using INLA and SPDE methods: A case study predicting malaria risk in Mozambique

, 2020
Bayesian spatial models are widely used to analyse data that arise in scientific disciplines such as health, ecology, and the environment. Traditionally, Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods have been used to fit these type of models.

Mapping and understanding the regional farmland SOC distribution in southern China using a Bayesian spatial model

Geoderma
Information on the spatial distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) in regional farmland is crucial for improving management and production. Mapping SOC in farmlands is challenging due to the strong variation of SOC caused by the influence of natural ...

A geostatistical model for combined analysis of point-level and area-level data using INLA and SPDEerri [PDF]

, 2017
\ud \ud In this paper a Bayesian geostatistical model is presented for fusion of data obtained at point and areal resolutions. The model is fitted using the INLA and SPDE approaches.

A Spatially Explicit Distribution Model to Support Conservation Strategies for Isolated Small‐Ranged Species: A Case Study From Galápagos

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim This study aimed to test the effectiveness of a hierarchical, spatially explicit, Bayesian modelling framework combining Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation (INLA) with Stochastic Partial Differential Equation (SPDE) as an alternative to traditional Species Distribution Models (SDMs), particularly in cases where standard assumptions ...

Using INLA to fit a complex point process model with temporally varying effects – a case study [PDF]

, 2012
Integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA) provides a fast and yet quite exact approach to fitting complex latent Gaussian models which comprise many statistical models in a Bayesian context, including log Gaussian Cox processes. This paper discusses

Fitting complex ecological point process models with integrated nested Laplace approximation

, 2013
Summary 1. We highlight an emerging statistical method, integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA), which is ideally suited for fitting complex models to many of the rich spatial data sets that ecologists wish to analyse. 2.

Low‐intensity urban development delays the spring departures of nonbreeding migratory bird populations

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Urban areas alter the timings (phenologies) of seasonal processes for plants and animals, yet the effects on bird migration, particularly pre‐breeding migration, are not well understood. Higher temperatures, higher levels of artificial light at night, and earlier vegetation emergence in urban areas can advance spring seasonal processes ...

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 445-461, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.
