From earlier ecological studies it has become apparent that simple univariate or bivariate statistics are often inappropriate, and that multivariate statistical analyses must be applied. Despite several difficulties arising from the application of multivariate methods, community ecology has acquired a mathematical framework, with three consequences: it can develop as an exact science; it can be applied operationally as a computer-assisted science to the solution of environmental problems; and it can exchange information with other disciplines using the language of mathematics.

This much anticipated volume maps the connections between numerical ecology and its implementation in the `R' language. Beginning with concise theoretical overviews, the authors go on to explore the methodology using applied and extensively annotated examples.
