Title: Statistics for Environmental Engineers. Second Edition Author(s): Paul Mac Berthouex, Linfield C. Brown Pages: 463 Publisher: CRC Press Publication date: 2002 Language: English Format: PDF ISBN-10: ISBN-13: Description: When one is confronted with a new problem that involves the collection and analysis of data, two crucial
questions are: How will using statistics help solve this problem? And, Which techniques should be used?
This book is intended to help environmental engineers answer these questions in order to better understand
and design systems for environmental protection.
The book is not about the environmental systems, except incidentally. It is about how to extract
information from data and how informative data are generated in the first place. A selection of practical
statistical methods is applied to the kinds of problems that we encountered in our work. We have not
tried to discuss every statistical method that is useful for studying environmental data. To do so would
mean including virtually all statistical methods, an obvious impossibility. Likewise, it is impossible to
mention every environmental problem that can or should be investigated by statistical methods. Each
reader, therefore, will find gaps in our coverage; when this happens, we hope that other authors have
filled the gap. Indeed, some topics have been omitted precisely because we know they are discussed in
other well-known books.
