Description: Contemporary Bayesian and Frequentist Statistical Research Methods for Natural Resource Scientists, Hardcover by Stauffer, Howard B., ISBN 0470165049, ISBN-13 9780470165041, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK Although they are becoming increasingly important, contemporary methods of applied statistics, including generalized linear modeling, mixed-effects modeling and Bayesian statistical analysis and inference, are not always in the natural resource scientist's toolbag. Here Stauffer (applied statistics, Humboldt State U.), who obviously knows of what he speaks through field as well as academic experience, thoroughly uses a range of examples and case studies and addresses problems common to natural resource sciences to help professionals, graduate and undergraduate students. He covers solution strategies, computer-assisted methods, Bayesian statistical analysis and inference, Markov Chain Monte Carlo solutions, alternative strategies for model selection and inference using information-theoretic criteria, generalized linear models, and including logistic-regression models, mixed-effects models. Stauffer includes computer-based examples and exercises (with answers) and an appendix on linear regression and multiple linear regression analysis for those who need a brush-up.
