Spatial ecology is now recognised as one of the founding disciplines to
link spatial patterns to ecological changes in space and time.

This course mainly focuses on the application of free and open source
algorithms ? which ensure high reproducibility and robustness of ecological
analysis ? to study ecological change in space and time, due to both human
impact and global change. Particular emphasis will be given to: 1)
population ecology: how organisms spread in space and how to study it by
point pattern analysis, 2) community ecology: how communities are
structured and how to study such structure by multivariate analysis; 3)
monitoring species distributions and their change in space and time by
species distribution modelling; 4) monitoring ecosystem change in space and
time by remote sensing data.

The course is dramatically practical giving space to exercises and
additional ecological issues provided by the professor and suggested by
students. We will make use of R which is one of the main free and open
source software for ecological modelling.

By the end of the course, participants will:
? be able to create their own projects on monitoring of spatial and
temporal changes of species and ecosystems at different spatial scales
? be able to report in LaTeX and R Markdown the achieved results
