Spatial Sampling with R (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Scientific research often starts with data collection. However, many researchers pay insufficient attention to this first step in their research. The author, researcher at Wageningen University and Research, often had to conclude that the data collected by fellow researchers were suboptimal, or in some cases even unsuitable for their aim.

Autorenporträt

Dick J. Brus worked as a researcher and statistics teacher at the Wageningen University and Research (Netherlands) for 38 years. His main fields of interest are sampling theory and geostatistics. He has gathered rich research experience in developing and applying statistical methods for natural resources inventory and monitoring. In 2015, he was appointed Adjunct Professor at Nanjing Normal University, Nanjing, China. He has published about 100 papers in peer-reviewed, international journals. He is second co-author of the book 'Sampling for Natural Resource Monitoring', published in 2006 by Springer. This book is widely acclaimed in soil, earth, environmental, agricultural and statistical science. Since January 1, 2022 he is retired and lives a joyful life in the countryside, where he grows vegetables in the garden, goes on cycling tours and sings in a choir. Every now and then, during rainy days, he works as a private contractor for the sole proprietorship Spatial Sampling registered with the Chamber of Commerce in the Netherlands.
