[Cowystats] Co/Wy ASA Note: ENVR WORKSHOP ON ENVIRONMETRICS, OCT. 22-24, 2008, NCAR

[Matt Pocernich]

Hello,

Just getting organized after a summer hiatus.  More local activities
including a date for the fall meeting will be announced soon.
A member pointed out the following workshop that might be of interest
to members happening in Boulder next month.


#### WORKSHOP ON ENVIRONMETRICS, OCT. 22-24, 2008, NCAR

This workshop covers state-of-the-art applications and statistical
methods in environmental monitoring. Sessions on applications include
monitoring in ecology, monitoring in air quality, monitoring of
aquatic resources, monitoring of climate change and its impacts. The
spatio-temporal data collected in environmental monitoring present
some interesting and challenging statistical problems such as modeling
of space-time correlation, analysis of the huge amount of correlated
data, and analysis of high frequency monitoring data. Technical
sessions will cover recent developments in statistical methods for
environmental data. A one-day short course on the analysis of
spatially correlated environmental data will be offered and taught by
Reinhard Furrer, Doug Nychka and Stephan Sain. There will also be a
poster session and the poster abstracts need to be submitted by
September 23, 2008.
