Zoom link for lectures: (You should have received the password by email, contact us if you did not receive it).Questions in plenary session are to be asked primarily by chat. Break-out groups will be organized also in the evening (GMT 4pm-6pm should be convenient for America) and in the morning (GMT 6am-8am should be convenient for Australasia). All lectures and computer demonstrations will be recorded, so those for whom these times are difficult can watch the recorded versions. The baseline course will run every day from 9am to 3pm, with one hour allocated to breaks, so 5 hours of active teaching for each of the five days. Course timing: how do we manage global participation? We have 123 registrations from Europe+Africa, 77 from America, and 39 from Australasia.

Ideally, you will come back from the course with R-scripts that run the entire Hmsc pipeline from constructing and fitting the models to producing the result tables and figures, as well as draft texts for how the analyses were done (for the Material and Methods section for your manuscript) and what the results are (for the Results section of your manuscript). The participants are encouraged to bring also their own data so that they can get hands-on support on HMSC-analyses of their own projects. With the help of worked out examples, the participants learn how to conduct and interpret statistical analyses in practice with the R-package Hmsc, providing a fast starting point for applying HMSC to their own data. The course covers a comprehensive treatment of HMSC, including both the technical detail of the statistical methods, as well as the ecological interpretation of the results.

Note also the short course " Multivariate modelling in ecology and joint species distribution models" on Saturday 20th June and the 90 min HMSC tutorial on Monday 22nd June. More information on this course coming soon. This course will be organized just before the International Statistical Ecology Conference (ISEC) as a short course at UNSW Sydney.
