ES 62500 - Applied Statistical Modeling


(4) This course provides students with mathematical, statistical, and computational skills to fit statistical models in environmental science. Each student will be expected to motivate, construct, analyze, and report on a statistical/mathematical model of their own that is related to their thesis topic and to explore and communicate techniques used in their field of study. Topics will include a review of deterministic functions and approaches to modeling, statistical approaches and probability distributions, likelihood methods, some Bayesian approaches, and some matrix algebra. Examples will be drawn mostly from fisheries and ecology. Prerequisite: ; two semesters of statistics or permission of the instructor. Offered Fall.
