Description: How to Be a Quantitative Ecologist : The 'A to R' of Green Mathematics and Statistics, Hardcover by Matthiopoulos, Jason, ISBN 0470699787, ISBN-13 9780470699782, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US To introduce ecology students to quantitative research methods, Matthiopoulos (Scottish Oceans Institute and Centre for Research into Ecological and Environmental Modelling, U. of St. Andrews, Scotland) begins with familiar basics of mathematics, mixes words and equations, takes examples from ecological contexts, emphasizes breadth rather than depth of techniques, and explains the plain-English meaning of the notation and terminology. After a course of one or two semesters using this textbook, he says, students should have the absolute minimum of knowledge about quantitative research that ecologists need, but can provide a foundation for students who want to move further in that direction. He introduces the R computer language for statistics, but does not provide a full guide to it. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
