Dear all, there are still a few seats available for the upcoming Physalia online course: "Analysing Biodiversity Through Time and Space Using R" Dates: 18-22 August DAILY SCHEDULE: Lecture/discussion: 15:00 to 18:00 ( Berlin-time) Practical: self-paced (~4 hours) Course website: ( https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/biodiversity-in-r/ ) This course offers a powerful, hands-on approach to analysing biodiversity patterns using both modern and fossil datasets. You'll learn how to build reproducible workflows in R, clean and integrate occurrence data, and quantify biodiversity across spatial and temporal scales. Participants will explore key biodiversity metrics, tackle challenges related to sampling bias, and gain practical experience in working with major databases like GBIF and the Paleobiology Database. You'll learn to combine palaeontological and neontological data, apply GIS and stratigraphic tools, and model diversification through deep time all while producing insightful visualisations to support your findings.
