This book focuses on the design and analysis of ecological experiments, concentrating on statistical approaches. Each chapter presents a particular statistical technique or set of techniques in the context of resolving an ecological issue. This new edition eliminates some topics that havein become less important to ecology, adds new chapters on thehe major developing issues, (power analysis, logisticecome less regression, randomization tests, and empiral Baynesian analysis), and updates all the presentations.
