Multivariate Analysis of Biotic Communities - On-Demand
PhD students and researchers — sharpen your skills in multivariate analysis of biotic communities with a practical online workshop led by Dr. Oliver Miler (Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission). This hands-on course covers multivariate concepts and ecological applications, step-by-step use of R for multivariate analyses, data preprocessing and management for large ecological datasets, visualization techniques, and practical sessions with real-world data. Delivered live via Zoom (recordings, code, data and slides available for 30 days) and supported by a 30-day Q&A forum monitored by Dr. Miler, the workshop also offers on-demand access and an Instats certificate of completion (ECTS equivalent shown for eligible European students). Part of a multivariate analysis seminar series — spaces are limited, register or learn more today. #Oceanography #Ecology #Zoology #EnvironmentalSciences #FisheriesBiology #Limnology #MarineBiology #PlantEcology #Biostatistics #Statistics #DataScience #Biology #R #RStudio #Research #ResearchTraining #Instats
