One challenge in data analysis is misrepresentation of datasets that are relevant directly or indirectly to the research. This book illustrates new ways of screening dataset or images for maximum utilization, introducing environmental modeling, numerical methods, and computations techniques in data analysis. Throughout the book, the author includes case studies that provide guidance on how to translate research questions into appropriate models.
Individuals working with data sets or images generated from environmental monitoring centers or satellites will find this book to be a concise guide for analyzing and interpreting their data.
- Bridges the theoretical underpinnings of modeling to research
- Illustrates the computational resolution of environmental issues alongside the use of open-source software
- Provides information on the use of analogue versus digital data treatment processes
Primary: Research students and professionals in environmental scienceSecondary: Research students and professionals in civil and chemical engineering, environmental chemistry, atmospheric physics, space physics, environmental biology, and renewable energy
