It is common in BEF studies to model an ecosystem function as a function of richness; while this can uncover trends in the BEF relationship, by definition, species diversity is much broader than richness alone, and important patterns in the BEF relationship may remain hidden.

BART assumes regularisation priors on a set of trees that work as weak learners and is very flexible for predicting in the presence of non-linearity and high-order interactions.
