Marine Ecology
Fouling Community Invertebrates in California - A gallery of identifying images of tunicates, bryozoans, and sponges from around California. Many of the photographs are mine, and have been useful in fouling community ID workshops.
R
R: A language for Statistical Computing - R is an open source statistics program. It's free, has a ton of packages, and great user support. In my opinion, it is the program we all should be using to do run our stats.
The sem.additions Package for R - A project I have been working on for simpler manipulation and analysis of Structural Equation Models in R. Includes methods to deal with non-normality, multi-model inference, and more.
A Quick and (Very) Dirty Intro to Doing Your Statistics in R - I wrote this for a course I taught on statistical computing in R. It has since expanded greatly, and I continue to maintain it as a useful resource.
Blogs
I'm a chordata! Urochordata - My blog covering ecology, marine science, intvertebrate zoology, and statistics all mixed up with a little bit of internet culture.
The Natural Patriot - Emmett Duffy's excellent blog on ecology, society, and their intersection.
The Oyster's Garter - Miriam Goldstein and Eric Wolff's take on marine science, with a healthy dose of humor.
Statisical Modeling, Causal Inference, and Social Science - Andrew Gelman's stats blog. I read it for tidbits of bayesian wisdom as well as some interesting pointers on the analysis of multilevel models.
The Deep Sea News - A venerable blog in the marine world detailing all the news of the briny deep that's fit to blog.
The Other 95% - Kevin Zelnio's tribute to invertebrates. It's constantly filled with interesting tidbits and obscure information on a wide variety of taxa. A must read for any fan of inverts, or students in an invertebrate zoology course.
Blogfish - Mark Powell's analysis of marine resource issues from the perspective of a "reformed" academic.
The Echinoblog - All echinoderms all the time.
Dissertation Haiku - A noble project to collect people's dissertations in haiku form. Can you find mine?
