Course Description:
　
This 40 hour course aims to give students an understanding of some key methods of spatial pattern analysis and modeling in landscape. The course prerequisites include course work in landscape ecology, probability and statistics and geographical information system, etc. By the end of course, students will gain advanced understanding of scale issues, landscape metrics, spatial statistics methods and spatial modeling.  Also, students will learn to use several popular software systems or programs for spatial pattern analysis and modeling.  The course will be a mixture of lectures, directed readings, lab exercises and student’s presentations. Exam will be taken at the end of course. Students will gain scores from their class performance, assignments, oral presentation and final exam.
