Stable Isotope Mixing Models using SIBER, SIAR, MixSIAR (SIMM04)
https://www.prstatistics.com/course/stable-isotope-mixing-models-using-r-simm04/
This course will be delivered by Dr Andrew Parnell and Dr Andrew Jackson
in Orford, Quebec, Canada, from 28th - 31st May 2018.
This course is suitable for anyone working on marine mammal foraging
ecology and food webs.
Course overview:
This course will cover the concepts, technical background and use of
stable isotope mixing models (SIMMs) with a particular focus on running
them in R. This course will cover the concepts, technical background and
use of stable isotope mixing models (SIMMs) with a particular focus on
running them in R. Recently SIMMs have become a very popular tool for
quantifying food webs and thus the diet of predators and prey in an
ecosystem. Starting with only basic understanding of statistical models,
we will cover the do’s and don’ts of using SIMMs with a particular focus
on the widely used package SIAR and the more advanced MixSIAR.
Participants will be taught some of the advanced features of these
packages, which will enable them to produce a richer class of output,
and are encouraged to bring their own data sets and problems to study
during the round-table discussions.
