Topics include exploratory data analysis, methods for quantifying spatial pattern, development of explanatory models to test spatial hypotheses, and development of predictive models for spatial interpolation. Prerequisites: One graduate level course in statistics (e.g. STAT 541 or equivalent). Cross-Listed: GSE/NRM 743
