Statistics for Environmental Science and Management

Reviews / Votes

"A former faculty member who has written books for environmental science and now a statistician for an environmental consulting company, the author knows the needs of environmental environmental scientists. He also knows how to effectively present methodology to his audience...Overall, this book has a huge variety of topics and numerous examples...a great and inexpensive library addition for statisticians and environmental scientists who analyze environmental data."

"This book will do much to promote good statistical practice in environmental matters, an area of worldwide concern."
-Short Book Reviews of the ISI, Vol. 21, No. 2, August 2001

"It assumes little previous statistical training, and aims to take the reader from basics through the middle ground of modelling and inference to deliver a grounding in advanced techniques appropriate for the specific audience....covers a remarkably broad range of topics for its size...text is commendably clear, describes the objectives as well as the mechanics of particular analyses, and points out some logical difficulties that no amount of statistical wizardry can overcome...provides a clear overview of many statistical techniques, and ample references to further reading...it serves its purpose well.""
