Approximate Bayesian computation to recalibrate individual-based models with population data: Illustration with a forest simulation model

•We proposed a method to recalibrate ecological models using approximate Bayesian computation.•We used Bayes factors as criteria to select the parameters to recalibrate.•A low number of simulations can be sufficient to estimate posterior distributions.•Focusing only on the most influent model parame...
