Titre : Handbook of trait-based ecology: from theory to R tools Type de document : livre Auteurs : Francesco de Bello, Auteur ; Carlos P. Carmona, Auteur ; André T. C. Dias, Auteur ; Lars Götzenberger, Auteur ; Marco Moretti, Auteur ; Matty P. Berg, Auteur Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2021 Importance : 295 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-108-46075-0 Note générale : DOI:10.1017/9781108628426 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Ecology Ecophysiology Phylogenetics Biodiversity Theory Statistical methods R (Computer program language) Résumé : Le site éditeur indique : Functional ecology is the branch of ecology that focuses on various functions that species play in the community or ecosystem in which they occur. This accessible guide offers the main concepts and tools in trait-based ecology, and their tricks, covering different trophic levels and organism types. It is designed for students, researchers and practitioners who wish to get a handy synthesis of existing concepts, tools and trends in trait-based ecology, and wish to apply it to their own field of interest. Where relevant, exercises specifically designed to be run in R are included, along with accompanying on-line resources including solutions for exercises and R functions, and updates reflecting current developments in this fast-changing field. Based on more than a decade of teaching experience, the authors developed and improved the way theoretical aspects and analytical tools of trait-based ecology are introduced and explained to readers.

Titre : Practical smoothing: the joys of P-splines Type de document : livre Auteurs : Paul H. C. Eilers, Auteur ; Brian D. Marx, Auteur Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2021 Importance : 199 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-108-48295-0 Prix : 46.99 GBP Note générale : DOI:10.10117/9781108610247; Companion site (Here you find the R code for all graphs in the book, pictures of those graphs, as well as supporting functions, data sets and documents) : https://psplines.bitbucket.io/ Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Statistical methods Résumé : Le site éditeur indique : This is a practical guide to P-splines, a simple, flexible and powerful tool for smoothing. P-splines combine regression on B-splines with simple, discrete, roughness penalties. They were introduced by the authors in 1996 and have been used in many diverse applications. The regression basis makes it straightforward to handle non-normal data, like in generalized linear models. The authors demonstrate optimal smoothing, using mixed model technology and Bayesian estimation, in addition to classical tools like cross-validation and AIC, covering theory and applications with code in R. Going far beyond simple smoothing, they also show how to use P-splines for regression on signals, varying-coefficient models, quantile and expectile smoothing, and composite links for grouped data. Penalties are the crucial elements of P-splines; with proper modifications they can handle periodic and circular data as well as shape constraints. Combining penalties with tensor products of B-splines extends these attractive properties to multiple dimensions. An appendix offers a systematic comparison to other smoothers.

Titre : Regression and other stories Type de document : livre Auteurs : Andrew Gelman, Auteur ; Hill, J., Auteur ; Vehtari, A., Auteur Mention d'édition : 1st ed., reprinted Editeur : Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2021 Collection : Analytical methods for social research Importance : 534 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : ‎978-1-107-67651-0 Prix : 40.84 EUR Note générale : First ed. 2021, reprinted 2021; DOI:10.1017/9781139161879; Home page for the book including the code and data for the examples : https://avehtari.github.io/ROS-Examples/ Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Statistical methods Computer programming Résumé : L'éditeur indique : Most textbooks on regression focus on theory and the simplest of examples. Real statistical problems, however, are complex and subtle. This is not a book about the theory of regression. It is about using regression to solve real problems of comparison, estimation, prediction, and causal inference. Unlike other books, it focuses on practical issues such as sample size and missing data and a wide range of goals and techniques. It jumps right in to methods and computer code you can use immediately. Real examples, real stories from the authors' experience demonstrate what regression can do and its limitations, with practical advice for understanding assumptions and implementing methods for experiments and observational studies. They make a smooth transition to logistic regression and GLM. The emphasis is on computation in R and Stan rather than derivations, with code available online. Graphics and presentation aid understanding of the models and model fitting.

However, this is the first book to thoroughly analyse and explain the interesting and changing scientific research that has been accomplished in South Africa's national parks during the twentieth century. Providing a fascinating and thorough historical narrative based on an extensive range of sources, this text details the evolution of traditional natural history pursuits to modern conservation science in South Africa, covering all research areas of conservation biology and all the national parks around the country. It reveals the interaction between the international context, government, learning institutions and the public that has shaped the present conservation arena. A complex story that will interest and inform not only those involved in conservation science of South Africa, but worldwide.
