PRogram for Interdisciplinary Mathematics, Ecology, and Statistics

PRIMES (PRogram for Interdisciplinary Mathematics, Ecology, and Statistics) is designed to address the challenges of studying complex ecological systems. Modern studies of ecological systems incorporate an extremely wide range of scientific and quantitative techniques, from the collection of data in the field, to the modeling of complex systems, to the application of advanced computational techniques. Consequently, quantitative ecology has become an inherently multi-disciplinary activity. Read More

PRIMES Workshop on Bayesian Methods in Wildlife Population Monitoring - June 14 thru 16, 2006

Hosted by Brett McClintock and Dr. Gary White

Overview:

With a focus on wildlife population monitoring, this 3 day workshop aims to increase the understanding and use of Bayesian statistics in ecology. Bayesian methods provide considerable potential to develop estimators of population size, survival, recruitment, and rate of population change.  A balanced program of theoretical and applied material will be presented.

Speakers:

Richard J. Barker, Mathematics and Statistics, University of Otago

William A. Link, US Geological Survey

Kenneth P. Burnham, Colorado Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit,
Colorado State University

Paul Lukacs, Colorado Division of Wildlife

Ken Newman, CREEM, University of St. Andrews

Olivier Gimenez, CREEM, University of St Andrews

J. Andrew Royle, US Geological Survey

Jennifer A. Hoeting, Statistics, Colorado State University

Carl J. Schwarz, Statistics and Actuarial Science, Simon Fraser University
