Natural Resources Biometrics / nm Dr. Diane Kiernan. - 1 online resource (vi, 251pages) : illustrations (some colour)

Natural Resources Biometrics begins with a review of descriptive statistics, estimation, and
hypothesis testing. The following chapters cover one- and two-way analysis of variance
(ANOVA), including multiple comparison methods and interaction assessment, with a
strong emphasis on application and interpretation. Simple and multiple linear regressions
in a natural resource setting are covered in the next chapters, focusing on correlation, model
fitting, residual analysis, and confidence and prediction intervals. The final chapters cover
growth and yield models, volume and biomass equations, site index curves, competition
indices, importance values, and measures of species diversity, association, and community
similarity.
