Statistical Analysis for Environmental Data with R (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783639026795)

For environmental data classical statistical analysis are often not useful which makes it necessary to find new methods to solve the resulting problems. To make it easier to understand the problems, and the solutions, for environmental data, this book tries to avoid mathematical formulae as much as possible. Therfore many things are explained with graphics. For creating the graphs R and the Kola dataset (consists of observations of the Kola Ecogeochemistry Project) were used. This dataset consists of more than 60 chemical elements of northern Finland, Norway and Russia. At the end of the book the functions (for creating the plots) are descriped. This book was written together with P. Filzmoser who wrotes "Statistical Data Analysis Explained" together with C. Reimann, R.G. Garrett and R. Dutter.
