Synergistic Activities:
1. Teaching innovation:
developed course on modern Bayes inference & prediction, taught annually
2. Outreach: Organized workshop
on Ecological Forecasting (Science
2002), Special Feature Ecology
(2003), ESA Symposium (2002), and ESA workshop (2002)
3. Led two-week summer school
(supported by NSF) on statistical computation, 2004 and 2006
4. Organized the Center on
Global Change, involving research, graduate training (Nicholas School Environ,
School Engin, Dept Biol & Statistics)
5. Initiated
an interdisciplinary Ecological Forecasting program involving faculty and
students in Ecology, Computer Science, and Statistics
