We still have a few places left on the course "Species
distribution/occupancy modelling using PRESENCE and R (OCCU01)" with the
registration deadline soon approaching (15.06.18)
https://www.prstatistics.com/course/species-distributionoccupancy-modelling-using-r-occu01/
This course will be held in Glasgow from the 25th - 29th June 2018
This course is being provided through a collaboration of PR statistics
and Proteus and will be delivered by Dr. Darryl MacKenzie
Course Overview:
The presence or absence of a species across a set of landscape units is
a fundamental concept widely used in ecology (e.g., species range or
distribution, epidemiology, habitat modeling, resource selection
probability functions, as a monitoring metric, metapopulation studies,
biodiversity and species co-occurrence). An important sampling issue,
however, is that a species may not always be detected when present at a
landscape unit. This will result in “false absences” causing parameter
estimates to be biased if unaccounted for, possibly leading to
misleading results and conclusions, even with moderate levels of
imperfect detection.
This workshop will cover many of the latest methods for modeling
patterns and dynamics of species occurrence in a landscape while
accounting for the imperfect detection of the species.
Including:
• estimating level of occurrence at single point in time
• identifying factors that influence species occurrence
• creating species distribution maps
• modelling changes in distribution over time
• study design
Participants will be introduced to available software through worked
examples, and there will be special emphasis on aspects of study design.
While primarily aimed at the beginner and intermediate level, more
experienced researchers will also benefit from attending.
The first four days will comprise of formal lectures and exercises, and
the final morning will be an informal discussion/consulting session
where participants can work on their own data, talk one-on-one with the
instructor, etc.
