SPATIAL - Spatial Data Methods for Environmental and Ecological Processes
Baia delle Zagare, Foggia, Italy, 14-15 september 2006
http://www.unifg.it/spatial/
The Workshop is an interdisciplinary conference (with statisticians, agronomists, biologists, ecologists etc.) fostering the exchange of experience among researchers working on spatial problems and the use of spatial statistics in real world problems.
The workshop will be organized in plenary sessions with general interest contributions and invited speakers, parallel sessions of specific interest and a poster session.
Submitted contributed papers will be subject to referees. Those accepted and revised according to referees indications will be published in the "Spatial Data Methods for Environmental and Ecological Processes" proceedings.
Invited Speakers:
B. Basso - Evaluation of techniques for assessing spatial and temporal variability of crop yield at field scale;
L. Boitani - Strengths and shortcomings of expert-driven habitat suitability models as a tool for predicting species distributions;
L. Fattorini - Design-based inference on without frame communities of spatially-spread objects;
A. Gelfand - Developing Statistical Models to Analyze Species Distributions;
T. Hengl - Optimizing spatial prediction models: from sampling to visualization;
G.B.M. Heuvelink - A statistical framework for representing and simulating uncertain environmental variables;
P.D. Sampson - Spatio-temporal modelling of air quality data on an urban scale, including GIS-based covariates, in the context of design of a monitoring network for a health effects study;
H. Wackernagel - Geostatistical assimilation of oceanographic data.
