Over the past few decades correspondence analysis has gained an international reputation
as a powerful statistical tool for the graphical analysis of contingency tables. This popularity …

Microbial decomposition of soil carbon in high-latitude tundra underlain with permafrost is
one of the most important, but poorly understood, potential positive feedbacks of …

An essential textbook for any student or researcher in biology needing to design
experiments, sample programs or analyse the resulting data. The text begins with a revision …

This book is primarily written for ecologists needing to analyse data resulting from field
observations and experiments. It will be particularly useful for students and researchers …

Here we investigate the relationships between modern planktonic foraminiferal species
assemblages from Atlantic and Pacific core-top sediment samples and 35 water-column and …

In the last decade, palaeolimnology has shifted emphasis from being a predominantly
qualitative, descriptive subject to being a quantitative, analytical science with the potential to …

Tropical rain forests have the highest tree diversity on earth. Nonrandom spatial distributions
of these species in relation to edaphic factors could be one mechanism responsible for …

We studied forest structure, composition and tree species diversity of eight plots in an
environmental matrix of four altitudes (700, 1700, 2700 and 3100 m) and two types of …

A 60-year chronosequence study of semi-arid old-fields indicates that abandonment age,
litter depth, organic carbon soil content, carbonate content and soil moisture are related to …

The relationships between the distribution of alpine species and selected environmental
variables are investigated by using two types of generalized linear models (GLMs) in a …
