Hi everyone Instats is excited to offer a 2-day seminar, Multivariate Analysis of Biotic Communities <https://instats.org/seminar/multivariate-analysis-of-biotic-communit>, running livestreaming Nov 13th. To properly understand the complexities of biotic communities, researchers need sophisticated analytical tools that reveal how species patterns relate to environmental drivers, and this seminar delivers exactly that. Across two focused days, Dr Oliver Miler from the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission in Washington State will introduce core multivariate concepts, demonstrate how ecological questions can be tackled with distance-based and ordination techniques, and guide participants step-by-step through data preprocessing, visualization, and interpretation of results in R. By integrating theory with hands-on exercises that use real ecological datasets, you’ll gain practical skills for managing large, complex data, building compelling graphics, and confidently applying multivariate methods in your own projects. Whether you’re working in community ecology, fisheries science, conservation biology, or any field grappling with high-dimensional ecological data, this seminar provides the foundation you need to move from raw observations to rigorous, publication-ready insights.
Sign up today <https://instats.org/seminar/multivariate-analysis-of-biotic-communit> to secure your place, and please share this opportunity with colleagues and students who might benefit!
