    <div>Dear Pablo,<br>
      <br>
      There is no way to extract variables importance from a Ensemble
      model because it's not calculated yet.. We are thinking about the
      way to implement it  because it's a really time consuming step..
      Concerning the response plots, the problem is the same.. <br>
      I will tell you when this functionalities will be ready.<br>
      <br>
      Cheers,<br>

      Damien. <br><div><div class="h5">Dear Damien, thanks for the responses to this threat. I however have a question/observation about the variables importance in a ensemble of models.  How do you really interpret the variable importance coming from an ensemble of models? Imaging two algorithms gave you high AUC values so they are considered good models, but choose different environmental variables, what would be the variable importance result of the ensemble? I find the interpretation of this a bit tricky. and not that straight forward.</div>

                <div>Dear Pablo,<br>
                  <br>
                  Don't worry about it.. It's just a warning indicating
                  that some function of raster package have changed of
                  names.. <br>
                  I took this into account in the last biomod2 version
                  so warnings will disappear when you'll update the
                  package .<br>
                  <br>
                  Best,<br>
                  <br>
