The objective of this course is to provide students with statistical knowledge and tools to manipulate, analyze and visualize biological data with R. Introduction to modeling, simulations and Bayesian statistics.

The course aims at introducing attendants to an updated state of the art of diversity of the soil biota and the functional roles played by soil organisms in key ecological processes.

Currently, climate changes or alterations are known to be reflected on the stable isotope ratios of Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Carbon, Oxygen and Sulphur present in atmospheric gas forms, fresh or ocean water, as well as in plants and animals and organic matter in the soil.

Curso no âmbito do Projeto SOILdarity.

O Ecology Day visa aproximar a Ecologia e os ecólogos da sociedade, rumo à construção de um desenvolvimento humano mais sustentável.

O projeto visa investigar a resiliência ecológica dos sapais do estuário do Sado face à subida do nível do mar durante os últimos milhares de anos e sua provável evolução futura, utilizando uma abordagem integrada, que combina registos sedimentológicos, geoquímicos, paleoecológicos e dados instrumentais.

O evento visa reunir investigadores interessados na aplicação de isótopos estáveis em estudos ecológicos e na utilização de dados históricos de biodiversidade disponíveis em coleções museológicas.

This event started as a desire from CEAUL to provide machine learning training to its members, and has slowly but steadily evolved into a workshop coined “Hands-on machine learning in ecology”. It is a free event, organized an run by kind folks donating their time to do so. We invited Carl Donovan (CREEM), Ian Durbach (CREEM) and Emmanuel Dufourq (Stellenbosch University) to deliver the hands-on component, and then invited a number of researchers to provide talks on applications on ML.
