1 NCEAS Expertise

The National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS), a research affiliate of UCSB, is a leading expert on interdisciplinary data science and works collaboratively to answer the world’s largest and most complex questions. The NCEAS approach leverages existing data and employs a team science philosophy to squeeze out all potential insights and solutions efficiently - this is called synthesis science.

NCEAS has over 25 years of success with this model among working groups and environmental professionals. Together with the Delta Science Program and the Delta Stewardship Council we are excited to pass along skills, workflows, mindsets learn throughout the years.

Learning Objectives
  • Effectively manage data using tidy data practices
  • Implement reproducible scientific workflows throughout all aspects of a project
  • Establish best practices and utilize tools like Git & GitHub to optimize your collaboration
  • Better communicate scientific analyses and results using Markdown, GitHub webpages, and R packages like ggplot2 and Shiny
  • Increase your familiarity and confidence with data science tools

1.1 Week’s Schedule

1.2 testing callouts:

NOTE it looks like including title="title of callout" in the callout doesn’t work… and either does the header method that works for standard callouts… oh well, still pretty cool. Look at NCEAS Learning Hub style sheet for color ideas.
