Bayesian population analysis using WinBUGS : a hierarchical perspective /

Show other versions (2)

Bayesian statistics has exploded into biology and its sub-disciplines, such as ecology, over the past decade. The free software program WinBUGS and its open-source sister OpenBugs is currently the only flexible and general-purpose program available with which the average ecologist can conduct standa...
