The Swiss Blue Community Eawag, the Federal Aquatic Research Institute, announces a summer school course:
Don’t forget to sign up for our “Summer School in Bayesian Methods for Environmental Modelling” in Kastanienbaum this year ๐ง๐ It teaches you how to use Bayesian techniques to treat uncertainties in data, model structure, and parameters quantitatively.
The course consists of lectures and practice sessions with didactical exercises with solutions in R, Julia, and Python. We will also have time to discuss your individual modeling challenges. Emphasis is on the concepts and applications of methods, not on mathematical derivations. To profit most from the course, you should feel comfortable with basic probability calculus, and reading and writing simple code. For those in need of a refresher, optional lectures on the fundamentals of probability calculus and an introduction to R programming are available on Sunday.
We strongly encourage attending the school in person for maximum benefit; however, remote participation could be arranged if necessary. Please contact us to discuss this option.
The course is equivalent to 2 ECTS points.
