Abstract

Major changes to the global environment and their impact upon statistical requirements are presented. The need for extensive yet accurate datasets is stressed and the difficulties of achieving appropriate sampling strategies are described. Examples are presented of environmental studies in use in diverse field such as global warming, sustainability, agroforestry and intercropping, and local community studies. The history of the use of environmental statistics is highlighted as is the need for modern methods to handle large, multivariate datasets likely to be subject to both spatial and temporal variability
