This workshop may be of interest to marine mammal scientists. Introduction to statistical modelling Centre for Research into Ecological and Environmental Modelling 24-27 January 2012, University of St. Andrews http://www.ruwpa.st-and.ac.uk/workshops/statsmodelling12/statsmodelling12.ht... The Centre for Research into Ecological and Environmental Modelling (CREEM) at the University of St. Andrews will be running a 4 day `Statistical Modelling’ workshop to introduce basic statistical modelling techniques. The workshop will cover Linear Models and Generalized Linear Models to help participants analyse continuous, presence/absence and count data. The course will be heavily data-based and presented using a marine mammal case study and workshop practicals will be based around an impact assessment analysis. The R software package will be used for workshop-based practicals but no prior experience with the R package is assumed. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Lindesay Scott-Hayward Centre for Research into Ecological and Environmental Modelling (CREEM), The Observatory, University of St Andrews, Fife KY16 9LZ Scotland Tel: +44 (0) 1334 461824 The University of St Andrews is a charity registered in Scotland : No SC013532
