This text is written to provide a mathematically sound but accessible and engaging introduction to Bayesian inference specifically for environmental scientists, ecologists and wildlife biologists. It emphasizes the power and usefulness of Bayesian methods in an ecological context.
The advent of fast personal computers and easily available software hassimplified the use ofBayesian and hierarchicalmodels . One obstacle remains for ecologists and wildlife biologists, namely the near absence of Bayesian texts written specifically for them. The book includes many relevant examples, is supported by software and examples on a companion website and will become an essential grounding in this approachforstudents and research ecologists.
Engagingly written text specifically designed to demystify a complex subject
Examples drawn from ecology and wildlife research
An essential grounding for graduate and research ecologists in the increasingly prevalent Bayesian approach to inference
Companion website with analytical software and examples
Leading authors with world-class reputations in ecology and biostatistics"
