Description

This 2 year appointment is linked to the ICMAT Laboratory headed by Prof. Stephen Wiggins.

The main goal of the laboratory is concerned with the development of theoretical and computational techniques in dynamical systems theory that can be used to assess and predict the performance of “realistic” ocean models. This project proposes the use of dynamical systems techniques as a metric that allows one to establish the performance of complex, nonlinear partial differential equations that are used to model a wide range of behavior and phenomena in the ocean. Thus this promising approach should provide crucial information relevant to the mathematical and computational modeling that will directly impact many of society’s pressing issues, such as sustainability, climate change and environmental impact.

Postdoctoral Fellow - Hierarchical Bayesian Modelling of GBR Catchment to Coastal Systems

The Position:

In this Postdoctoral Fellow role, you will be working with scientists from the CSIRO Water for a Healthy Country Flagship to develop statistical methods for modelling Great Barrier Reef (GBR) catchment to coast systems. 

In this position, you will help to improve the environmental management of Australia’s important water ecosystems through the development of statistical methodologies that link mechanistic models with observational data in space and time. Models developed will require a stochastic framework that can address the important science questions regarding system behaviour in the presence of uncertainty. Bayesian hierarchical modelling (BHM) and the construction of emulators embedded within this framework can provide the necessary framework for developing these models. You will be responsible for developing the BHM framework that will house these complex physical processes.

Introducción a la estadística moderna con R. Curso gratuito

Presentación
La estadística es una disciplina científica joven: la mayor parte de los conceptos básicos de los que se ocupan los libros de texto tienen apenas 100 años.

Sin embargo, pese a su juventud, hay quienes piensan que nació demasiado pronto. Algunos estadísticos modernos, de hecho, se han planteado la siguiente pregunta: ¿cómo sería la estadística si hubiese nacido después de los ordenadores? Y al responderla han venido a elaborar un enfoque alternativo al clásico (o habitual) de la estadística, que convenimos en llamar estadística moderna.

La estadística clásica tiene infinitos méritos. Pero la experiencia enseña que también tiende a viciar los conceptos fundamentales de la disciplina en muchos de sus usuarios (y, en particular, en sus estudiantes). Es descorazonador comprobar cómo muchos entienden la estadística como un conjunto de recetas prefabricadas para resolver ciertos tipos de problemas de libro. Ciertos paquetes de software para análisis estadístico muy populares, que se limitan a organizar las recetas en menús y submenús, han contribuido a asentar esta visión castrada de la ciencia estadística.

La estadística moderna, por el contrario, pone de relieve los conceptos fundamentales de la estadística (que proceden esencialmente de la relación señal/ruido en un conjunto de datos) y enseña a navegar hasta ellos a través de un proceso computacional y constructivo desde los datos mismos.

Tradicionalmente, este proceso constructivo era sumamente engorroso. Pero en la segunda década del siglo XXI, y gracias a R las cosas han cambiado. Y de ahí este curso. Porque la era de la estadística moderna ha llegado.

Postdoctoral fellowship in ecological Statistics in California

Postdoctoral fellowship in ecological statistics at the University of Notre Dame/University of California, Berkeley

A postdoctoral fellowship in statistical methods applied to paleoecological problems is available based either at the University of Notre Dame or at the University of California, Berkeley. The position is part of NSF-funded PalEON, a PaleoEcological Observatory Network to Assess Terrestrial Ecosystem Models, and is associated with Notre Dame's Environmental Change Initiative (ND-ECI). PALEON is an initiative to statistically estimate changes in forest composition in the northeastern U.S. over the past 2000 yearsusing paleoecological data and to assimilate these estimates into ecosystem models. The postdoctoral fellow will lead the development of statistical models, based on spatial statistics, state space, and data assimilation methods, for the initiative, interacting with statisticians, paleoecologists, paleoclimatologists, and ecosystem modelers. The fellow will work with Dr. Christopher Paciorek at UC Berkeley and Dr. Jason McLachlan at Notre Dame, with extensive interaction with other PALEON team members. Specific modeling challenges may include spatio-temporal modeling of paleoecological data, state-space modeling informed by
ecological models, modeling uncertainty in radiocarbon dating, and spatial modeling of vegetation based on colonial settlement-era historical records.
