Bob, I, too, am an ecologist, but I've been coding applications since 1972. :-) FORTRAN, C, and now Python. I'll suggest a SQL language book as your first purchase. Your description above suggests that nested sub-queries in the SELECT statement are what you need to learn. Learn SQLite, too, and you won't go wrong as your needs grow.
