The authors take pains to use only elementary mathematics and explain the ecological models behind the techniques.
|
|
:
|
The purpose of this book is to show ecologists and environmental scientists what numerical and statistical methods are most useful, how to use them and interpret the results from them, and what pitfalls to avoid.
