THE SSES PROGRAM
Environmental Data Seminar 2002


This seminar is organized by the Program in Spatial Statistics and Environmental Sciences. Data are central to all scientific and engineering studies. Importantly, they are collected for a reason and they are subsequently analyzed in this context. Scientists and Engineers across the OSU campus will come together weekly in Winter 2002 to present and discuss their environmental data sets and the problems that motivated their collection. Refreshments will be provided before the seminar and all interested are welcome. If you intend to come, please RSVP to sses@stat.ohio-state.edu, so we have enough refreshments. I hope to see you there.
Noel Cressie
Director, Program in Spatial Statistics and Environmental Sciences
