Jan 28, JoJo rated it it was amazing Shelves: science , non-fiction , self-help , ecology. A must-read for Every Ecologist!! This very much needed book provides suggestions to researchers or students on how to approach ecological research effectively.
I have been working on Ecology for the past two years but it such a vast, complex subject that I believe I would always call myself a "trying ecologist". This book, lent to me by my boss, helped me to know distinctly about the techniques I have been following subconciously and other ways that were quite new to me. Having clear, defined objectives, however, do not restrict yourself.
Importance of appropriate controls, effective treatment methods, replication of independent units, and ability to randomize and intersperse your treatments.
Understanding statistics is an added bonus, the primary motive is to be out there with the organism or landscape and understanding certain biological processes. There is also a great need for alternate hypotheses and not many ecological processes can be explained only through binary values. The authors also speak about the limitations of statistics in accepting negative results.
