NCSE

The National Centre for Statistical Ecology (NCSE) is a joint research centre, spanning a number of institutions. The members of the NCSE develop, apply and communicate innovative statistical methods for collecting and analysing ecological data, thereby improving the understanding and management of wildlife populations and their environment... NCSE was set up in October 2005 as a joint venture between the Universities of Kent, Cambridge and St Andrews, with funding from the EPSRC. In 2010, NCSE was expanded to include the Universities of Bath, Bristol, Exeter, Glasgow and Sheffield, together with the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, and the University of Cambridge dropped out, following departure of staff. This expansion was achieved with the aid of a new five-year joint EPSRC/NERC grant. Four further organisations were formal Project Partners: Biomathematics and Statistics Scotland; the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science; the Game and Wildlife Conservation..
