商品描述

Scientific research often starts with data collection. However, many researchers pay insufficient attention to this first step in their research. The author, researcher at Wageningen University and Research, often had to conclude that the data collected by fellow researchers were suboptimal, or in some cases even unsuitable for their aim. One reason is that sampling is frequently overlooked in statistics courses. Another reason is the lack of practical textbooks on sampling. Numerous books have been published on the statistical analysis and modelling of data using R, but to date no book has been published in this series on how these data can best be collected. This book fills this gap. Spatial Sampling with R presents an overview of sampling designs for spatial sample survey and monitoring. It shows how to implement the sampling designs and how to estimate (sub)population- and space-time parameters in R.

Key features

  • Describes classical, basic sampling designs for spatial survey, as well as recently developed, advanced sampling designs and estimators
  • Presents probability sampling designs for estimating parameters for a (sub)population, as well as non-probability sampling designs for mapping
  • Gives comprehensive overview of model-assisted estimators
  • Illustrates sampling designs with surveys of soil organic carbon, above-ground biomass, air temperature, opium poppy
  • Explains integration of wall-to-wall data sets (e.g. remote sensing images) and sample data
  • Data and R code available on github
  • Exercises added making the book suitable as a textbook for students

The target group of this book are researchers and practitioners of sample surveys, as well as students in environmental, ecological, agricultural science or any other science in which knowledge about a population of interest is collected through spatial sampling. This book helps to implement proper sampling designs, tailored to their problems at hand, so that valuable data are collected that can be used to answer the research questions.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

科學研究通常始於數據收集。然而,許多研究者對於研究的第一步並未給予足夠的重視。作者是瓦赫寧根大學與研究中心的研究員,經常不得不得出結論,其他研究者所收集的數據是次優的,甚至在某些情況下不適合其研究目的。其原因之一是統計課程中常常忽視了抽樣。另一個原因是缺乏關於抽樣的實用教科書。雖然已有許多書籍出版,專注於使用 R 進行數據的統計分析和建模,但迄今為止,尚未有一本書在這個系列中探討如何最佳地收集這些數據。本書填補了這一空白。《使用 R 進行空間抽樣》提供了空間樣本調查和監測的抽樣設計概述。它展示了如何實施這些抽樣設計,以及如何在 R 中估計(子)人口和時空參數。

**主要特點**
- 描述了空間調查的經典基本抽樣設計,以及最近開發的先進抽樣設計和估計量
- 提供了用於估計(子)人口參數的概率抽樣設計,以及用於製圖的非概率抽樣設計
- 提供了模型輔助估計量的全面概述
- 以土壤有機碳、地上生物量、空氣溫度、鴉片罌粟的調查來說明抽樣設計
- 解釋了牆對牆數據集(例如遙感影像)與樣本數據的整合
- 數據和 R 代碼可在 GitHub 上獲得
- 增加了練習題,使本書適合作為學生的教科書

本書的目標讀者是樣本調查的研究者和實踐者,以及環境、生态、農業科學或任何其他通過空間抽樣收集目標人群知識的科學領域的學生。本書幫助實施適當的抽樣設計,針對他們面臨的問題,以便收集有價值的數據,這些數據可以用來回答研究問題。

作者簡介

Dick J. Brus worked as a researcher and statistics teacher at the Wageningen University and Research (Netherlands) for 38 years. His main fields of interest are sampling theory and geostatistics. He has gathered rich research experience in developing and applying statistical methods for natural resources inventory and monitoring. In 2015, he was appointed Adjunct Professor at Nanjing Normal University, Nanjing, China. He has published about 100 papers in peer-reviewed, international journals. He is second co-author of the book 'Sampling for Natural Resource Monitoring', published in 2006 by Springer. This book is widely acclaimed in soil, earth, environmental, agricultural and statistical science. Since January 1, 2022 he is retired and lives a joyful life in the countryside, where he grows vegetables in the garden, goes on cycling tours and sings in a choir. Every now and then, during rainy days, he works as a private contractor for the sole proprietorship Spatial Sampling registered with the Chamber of Commerce in the Netherlands.
