This course provides students with a conceptual and practical understanding of the application of multivariate statistics in ecology and conservation science. Importantly, the conceptual development and organization of multivariate statistical techniques and the applications of these methods are presented strictly from an ecology and conservation science perspective. This course focuses on working with multivariate data (e.g., screening and adjusting multivariate data), evaluating grouped data (e.g., unconstrained and constrained ordination).
Open to graduate students in ECO and OEB/ORGEV&BI.
Multiple required components--lab and/or discussion section. To register, submit requests for all components simultaneously.
