THE SSES PROGRAM
Discussion Group on Space-Time Data and Modeling


The Program in Spatial Statistics and Environmental Statistics (SSES) is sponsoring a Discussion Group on Space-Time Data and Modeling during Spring Quarter 2009. The format for the discussion group will be a mix of tutorials, discussions of journal articles, and informal presentations of participants' research. The research presentations will be for the most part given by researchers from across campus who will share their space-time data and analyses.

For more information on the discussion group, please e-mail us at sses@stat.osu.edu.
