Matrix methods provide powerful tools for understanding and managing ecological systems and are frequently used for analysis of population dynamics. This course is intended to introduce matrix model calculus and its implications within an ecological context. This six-day course will be divided into lectures and workshops focused on simplifying matrix methods and for researchers to apply their gained skills on a set of data. Biologists with individual based data (i.e., life history transitions) are encouraged to sign-up. The course is computational based and all levels of RStudio are welcome.
