Özet

Statistics in Ecotoxicology Edited by Tim Sparks Institute ofTerrestrial Ecology, Cambridgeshire, UK A basic understanding ofstatistical concepts and methodology is essential for everyresearch scientist. Statistics in Ecotoxicology is a comprehensive,well-illustrated text, tailored to meet the needs of allecotoxicologists from undergraduates to professionals. Avoidingmathematical jargon, the book uses worked examples to enable thereader to understand the potential of, and limitations of,statistical analysis in both the planning and operation oflaboratory and field ecotoxicological experiments. This informativeand highly practical guide:
* provides an invaluable introduction to the quantitative methodsfor the analysis of ecotoxicological data;
* covers field experimentation, laboratory experimentation,regression methodology, multivariate methods and monitoring:
* incorporates essential tips to prevent many of the common designand analytical failings in ecotoxicology; and,
* includes case studies comprising of terrestrial, freshwater andmarine examples.
Written by an international team of scientists, Statistics inEcotoxicology will be essential reading for all ecotoxicologists.
