Population Parameters: Estimation for Ecological Models (Methods in Ecology)
Population Parameters: Estimation for Ecological Models (Methods in Ecology)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Ecologists and environmental managers rely on mathematical models, both to understand ecological systems and to predict future system behaviour. In turn, models rely on appropriate estimates of their parameters.This book brings together a diverse and scattered literature, to provide clear guidance on how to estimate parameters for models of animal populations. It is not a recipe book of statistical procedures. Instead, it concentrates on how to select the best approach to parameter estimation for a particular problem, and how to ensure that the quality estimated is the appropriate one for the specific purpose of the modeling exercise.
