How we can help you
The Key Largo woodrat was used as a case study species for the development of trapping point transects
Joanne investigated the difference between different statistical estimation techniques for heavily censored data sets, using aircraft component failure as the motivating example
Joanne developed risk-based trace priorities for an outbreak of citrus canker in Queensland
