Introductory and advanced occupancy modeling courses | Oct. 2018, VA, USA
Beginner/intermediate course: 15-19 October 2018
Advanced course: 22-26 October 2018
Occupancy models are a suite of methods that have been developed for
examining the patterns and dynamics of species occurrence (e.g.,
presence/absence) across a region of interest, particularly while
account for the imperfect detection of species. They may be used in a
wide range of ecological applications, from simply providing a
monitoring metric, to investigating relationships between the
distribution of a species with environmental variables (i.e., species
distribution modelling), or how these change over time.
Darryl MacKenzie (http://www.proteus.co.nz/about.php) will be teaching
an introductory and advanced workshop on these methods at Blacksburg,
Virginia, USA, in October 2018. Each course is 4.5 days long with a
course fee of USD$800 per course if registered before 24 September
(USD$900 thereafter). A 10% discount is available if registering for both.
