Environmental Statistics with R

Environmental statistics is the application of statistical methods to environmental science. It covers procedures for dealing with questions concerning both the natural environment in its undisturbed state and the interaction of humanity with the environment. The environmental statistics theme by definition is the development and application of statistical methodology to environmental issues- these can be based in the natural environment or the urban environment. Emphasizing the inductive nature of statistical thinking, Environmental and Ecological Statistics with R connects applied statistics to the environmental and ecological fields. It follows the general approach to solving a statistical modelling problem, covering model specification, parametre estimation, and model evaluation. This book focuses on statistical modelling and data analysis for environmental and ecological problems.
