About the Book

The role of statistics in resource management and estimation, and in environmental management is discussed in this text. Over the last 15 years worldwide interest in these issues has grown and the need to monitor and forecast is apparent. Statistical techniques can be used to this end. In this collection, a substantial amount of new theory is advanced and applied to case studies, some existing techniques are discussed and reviewed. The statistical coverage includes subjects such as acid rain, earthquake prediction and mineral resources and is designed to be of interest to researchers and libraries dealing with environmental modelling, geophysics or seismology.

Table of Contents:
Part 1 Introduction to statistics in the environmental sciences: establishing a statistical context for the evaluation of air quality models; quality data networks that minimize entropy; non-parametric estimation of spatial covariance with application to monitoring network evaluation; spatial covariance estimation for monitoring data; modelling daily precipitation - progress and problems. Part 2 Introduction to statistics in the earth sciences: ageing functions and their nonparametric estimation in point process models of rainfall; deconvolution of chaotic and random time series; deconvolving nonGaussion time series - the seismic experience; deconvolution of short period teleseismic and regional time series; envelope estimation for quasi-periodic geophysical signals in noise - signals in noise - a multitaper approach; statistical methods for the description and display of earthquake catalogs; stochastic models for the distribution of rock types in petroleum reservoirs; analysis of geochemical data sampled on a regional scale.
