Staff from the Centre for Research into Ecological and Environmental
Modelling, Univ. of St. Andrews will deliver this workshop hosted by the
Scripps Institute of Oceanography (SIO) this coming summer (12-15
July). The workshop instructors will be Drs. David Borchers, Len
Thomas, and Tiago Marques. Over 3.5 days, we will focus on distance
sampling methods, as described in the standard reference book
Introduction to Distance Sampling (book will be provided). The workshop
will be a blend of theory and practice and participants will learn how
to use the program Distance.
Space is limited to 40 places and we expect this workshop to fill more
quickly than did last year's North America workshop, so if you are
interested, please visit the website
(http://www.cetus.ucsd.edu/Distance.html) and register soon. This site
also contains information on accommodation (campus housing at UCSD as
well as other negotiated rates) along with information on the location
and other details.
Those interested in the application of passive acoustics in abundance
estimation may also attend a SIO symposium the following day
(http://www.cetus.ucsd.edu/Density.html).
