This 5-day course will cover R concepts, methods, and tools that can be used to analyze community ecology data. The course will review data processing techniques relevant to multivariate data sets. We will cover diversity indices, distance measures and distance-based multivariate methods, clustering, classification and ordination techniques using the R package VEGAN. We will use real-world empirical data sets to motivate analyses, such as describing patterns along gradients of environ-mental or anthropogenic disturbances, quantifying the effects of continuous and discrete predictors. We will emphasise visualisation and reproducible workflows as well as good programming practices. The modules will consist of introductory lectures, guided computer coding, and participant exercises. The course is intended for intermediate users of R who are interested in community ecology, particularly in the areas of terrestrial and wetland ecology, microbial ecology, and natural resource management. You are strongly encouraged to use your own data sets (they should be clean and already structured, see the document: “recommendation if you participate with your data”.
Please feel free to contact oliverhooker@prstatistics.com with any questions.
Moving our courses online due to the COVID pandemic has allowed us to archive all our previous courses and offer them in a recorded format.
This is ideal for;
People with busy schedules who can’t take long periods off work to attend workshops.
Allows attendees to work at their own pace with email support.
Suitable for people from all timezones.
The recordings are taken from our Live Online Courses which ensures all materials and software packages are constantly up-to-date.
