| Summary: | "This book provides a practical introduction to analysing ecological data using real data sets collected as part of postgraduate ecological studies of research projects. The first part of the book gives a largely non-mathematical introduction to data exploration, univariate methods (including GAM and mixed modelling techniques), multivariate analysis, time series analysis (e.g., common trends), and spatial statistics. The second part provides 17 case studies, mainly written together with biologists who attended courses given by the first authors. The case studies include topics ranging from terrestrial ecology to marine biology."--BOOK JACKET. |
