Abstract

Choosing and Using Statistics remains an invaluable guide for students using a computer package to analyse data from research projects and practical class work. The text takes a pragmatic approach to statistics with a strong focus on what is actually needed. There are chapters giving useful advice on the basics of statistics and guidance on the presentation of data. The book is built around a key to selecting the correct statistical test and then gives clear guidance on how to carry out the test and interpret the output from four commonly used computer packages: SPSS, Minitab, Excel, and (new to this edition) the free program, R. Only the basics of formal statistics are described and the emphasis is on jargon-free English but any unfamiliar words can be looked up in the extensive glossary. This new 3rd edition of Choosing and Using Statistics is a must for all students who use a computer package to apply statistics in practical and project work. Features new to this edition: (-) Now features information on using the popular free program, R ; (-) Uses a simple key and flow chart to help you choose the right statistical test ; (-) Aimed at students using statistics for projects and in practical classes ; (-) Includes an extensive glossary and key to symbols to explain any statistical jargon ; (-) No previous knowledge of statistics is assumed

Abstract

This advanced textbook is the first to explore the consequences of plant dispersal for population and community dynamics, spatial patterns, and evolution. It successfully integrates a rapidly expanding body of theoretical and empirical research.· The first comprehensive treatment of plant dispersal set within a population framework· Examines both the processes and consequence of dispersal· Spans the entire range of research, from natural history and collection of empirical data to modeling and evolutionary theory· Provides a clear and simple explanation of mathematical concepts
