\section{Future Work}

\label{sec:future}
% ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Several directions extend this work:

\begin{enumerate}
  \item \textbf{Dynamic land use}: Coupling HabitatNet with land-use
    change models (e.g., CLUE, LUH2) for joint climate-land use
    projections.
  \item \textbf{Species interactions}: Incorporating biotic interaction
    networks as an additional graph layer, enabling prediction of
    community-level responses to climate change.
  \item \textbf{Uncertainty quantification}: Developing Bayesian GNN
    variants for principled uncertainty estimation across model,
    data, and scenario uncertainty sources.
  \item \textbf{Real-time monitoring}: Integrating satellite-derived
    near-real-time land cover change detection to update habitat maps
    continuously.
  \item \textbf{Decentralized compute}: Deploying training workloads on
    the Zoo Open Science Network's decentralized compute infrastructure,
    enabling community-contributed computational resources.
  \item \textbf{DAO-governed priorities}: Allowing the Zoo DAO to vote
    on conservation priority regions and species through quadratic
    voting mechanisms (see ZIP-003).
\end{enumerate}
