Quantitative Data Analysis for Environmental Scientists. 3 credits

Catalog description

This course introduces processing, visualizing, and interpreting data using scientific computing techniques widely used in environmental science and natural resources management fields. Students will gain experience with data manipulation, plotting and exporting publication-worthy plots, multiple types of regression analyses, and hypothesis testing. During the course, students will also learn how to create or automate a reproducible workflow for all your data analysis and plotting needs. As science and the publication process become more transparent, this reproducible record becomes more critical and sometimes necessary to the rigorous research process and robust scientific evidence.
