Makhlobe developed and enhanced ecological data analysis pipelines in the atsa-es/fish550-2025 repository, focusing on time series modeling for plankton, PDO, and salmon datasets. Using R and R Markdown, Makhlobe implemented frameworks for Dynamic Factor Analysis, Hidden Markov Models, and Dynamic Linear Models, enabling robust model comparison and automated reporting. The work included building reusable templates, establishing team scaffolding, and improving data privacy in scripts. By consolidating code and streamlining data wrangling, Makhlobe improved reproducibility and maintainability. The engineering approach demonstrated depth in statistical modeling and facilitated faster, more reliable analyses for collaborative research and stakeholder reporting.

In May 2025, the fish550-2025 project advanced model development pipelines across ecological data analysis (DFA, HMM, DLM) for plankton, PDO, and salmon datasets, while initiating Ricker MARSS work. The work emphasized producing reporting-ready templates, robust model comparisons (AICc), and data processing automation to shorten turnaround for stakeholder reports. Collaboration across scripts and labs laid groundwork for scalable, reproducible analyses.
