[R-sig-eco] Statistics applied to Geography using R

[Manuel Spínola]

Thank you very much Dr. Oksanen,

I was thinking in a very general sense because the idea is to cover the 
topic for undergraduate course, covering from regression to cluster 
analysis and also some geostatistics.  The idea is to show those 
analysis using geographic data.
Best,

Manuel

Geography is one of the most variable fields of science, and sometimes people have trouble in defining what is geography (indeed, I had a book exam on that subject when studying geography). One thing is clear: geostatistics is not equal to geography. Biogeography and palaeoecology may be - depends who you ask. A bit more specific question could perhaps get informative answers.
