SEEC UCT

The Centre for Statistics in Ecology, the Environment and Conservation (SEEC) is an inter-departmental grouping based at the University of Cape Town.

The statistical sciences develop quantitative tools for evaluating hypotheses in the light of data and therefore assume a critical role within science. This is especially true for the biological and environmental sciences, which study complex systems with large amounts of multi-layered data and are faced with decision making problems that directly affect human livelihoods and well-being. Recent de

velopments in statistical methods are revolutionising the way ecological and environmental research is conducted. These developments led to the fields of statistical ecology and environmetrics. The goal of these fields is to address core questions in ecology and environmental sciences using novel statistical approaches, which account for uncertainty more comprehensively and extract signals from noisy data more reliably. This is leading to a far deeper understanding of natural systems, which is the foundation for the sustainable use and management of pressures on biodiversity in the face of global change. -

Point pattern data is very common and arises in many ecological and environmental studies. The points may represent the locations of birds, plant species or herds of animals amongst other things. In this talk Zaza looked at the basic tools for interrogating such data sets. These include methods for...

Thank you to all the presenters for the 2019 SEEC Stats Toolboxes. Everyone has done an excellent job and we appreciate all the effort that goes into making a Toolbox.

If any of you have missed out on the seminars, you can find the videos, slides and data at http://www.seec.uct.ac.za/stats-toolbox-seminars .

We appreciate all the support and look forward to another year of exciting topics!

Learn about stats methods that can be applied to ecological and environmental data. On the last Thursday of every month at 13:00 we will introduce a method, e.g. distance sampling or occupancy models, that can be added to your stats toolbox.
