Objetius |
To identify environmental problems that need a suitable statistical treatment. To develop the aptitude to understand the spatial variability and to understand with statistical terms on real problems, with all its complexity. To differentiate the types of environmental information and to analyze the contexts in which they arise. To assimilate the fundamental steps of the modeling and the statistical analysis of environmental information. To handle computer software for the statistical treatment of spatial observations. To interpret the obtained results in a critical way. |
