Notes for Richard. L. Smith's CBMS COURSE IN ENVIRONMENTAL STATISTICS, University of Washington, June 25-29, 2001

From the Author's Introduction: "This course covers a number of areas of applied statistics which are relevant in environmental research. Statistical themes include spatial statistics,time series analysis and extreme values. Environmental themes include climate change, atmospheric pollution, issues of data collection and interpretation including the design of a monitoring network, and the assessment of probabilities associated with extreme events such as floodsand hurricanes.
