Contemporary Statistical Models for the Plant and Soil Sciences
Editorial Reviews
Review
"This text [presents] many of the newer statistical modeling techniques for data analysis using examples familiar to plant and soil scientists…keeping the mathematical complexity to a minimum. I applaud the authors for their efforts to bring the current state of the area of statistical modeling into the realm of the plant and soil sciences." --Clarence E. Watson, Experimental Statistics and Plant and Soil Sciences, Mississippi State University, USA "My overall impression is that it is a superbly crafted text replete with many carefully chosen examples that instructively demonstrate contemporary models and modelling practices. The authors' attention to fine detail in the presentation of materials is evident in every chapter. Researchers, instructors, and students alike doubtlessly will find the snippets of SAS code and specially tailored macros to be of immense value when fitting data to the contemporary models described in this treatise." --Timothy Gregoire, School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, Yale University, New Haven , USA
Book Description
Integrating modern statistics with practical problems in soil and crop science, Contemporary Statistical Models for the Plant and Soil Science provides real-life examples that help readers understand the material. Advances in technology have significantly altered the type, amount, quality, timing, format, and the source of data available. This book shows readers how to apply these techniques to their work. The techniques presented include: mixed linear models, generalized linear models, classification models, non-linear regression, and spatial statistics. A CD-ROM is included allowing readers to work the problems on their own.
