Description

Wildlife researchers and ecologists rely heavily on multivariate statistics in their studies. This book provides a practical guide to applying statistical techniques specifically tailored for ecological applications, making it easier to understand how to use these tools effectively. The book offers a solid conceptual understanding of the role of multivariate statistics in ecology, as well as insight into the type of research questions each technique is best suited for and important considerations when applying them. Detailed examples using real wildlife data sets analyzed with SAS statistical software are used to illustrate key concepts. Suitable for upper-division and graduate students in wildlife biology, forestry, and ecology, as well as professional wildlife scientists and natural resource managers, this book provides a valuable resource for researchers across the biological sciences.
