Implication

Perspective reveals that reliable ecological forecasts improve environmental management, highlighting the need for interdisciplinary collaboration between scientists and policymakers.

Key Points

To outline the necessity, emerging technological capacity, and collaborative scientific agenda required to generate operational ecological forecasts for natural resource management.
Synthesized recent advances in ecological data collection, computational infrastructure, and statistical modeling.
Evaluated the structural requirements for connecting ecological forecasting workflows with societal and policy decision-making processes.
Rapid expansion of computational capabilities and novel datasets qualitatively increases the feasibility of forecasting ecosystem states, ecosystem services, and natural capital.
Effective ecological forecasting relies on interdisciplinary integration to account for climatic controls, societal drivers, and bidirectional social-ecological feedbacks.
