Ecolog:
I'd like to get a copy of the best possible research paper that best
illustrates how Bayesian statistics and Bayesian modeling got the job done,
preferably ones that made a major (if not THE major) contribution to
Ecology. I'd prefer plant ecology, but that's not a hard requirement.
Thanks in advance for your replies.

Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Bayesian Modeling Workshop Opportunity
The National Science Foundation is sponsoring an annual, two-week workshop
to provide intensive training in Bayesian modeling for post doctoral
researchers, academic faculty, and agency scientists. Twenty participants
will be invited each year. There will be no cost for participation in the
workshop, and a $1000 stipend will be provided to each participant to defray
costs of travel. The first workshop will be held May 20-31, 2013 at Colorado
State University in Fort Collins, CO.
Goals of the Workshop
1. Provide a principles-based understanding of Bayesian methods needed to
train students, to evaluate papers and proposals, and to solve research
problems.
2. Communicate the statistical concepts and vocabulary needed to foster
collaboration between ecologists and statisticians.
3. Provide the conceptual foundations and quantitative confidence needed for
self-teaching modern analytical methods.
Instructors:
Tom Hobbs, Colorado State University
Mevin Hooten, Colorado State University
Kiona Ogle, Arizona State University
Maria Uriarte, Columbia University
