General statistical treatment of spatio-temporal models - Introduction

3. General statistical treatment of spatio-temporal models
3. 1. Introduction

Since the statistical approaches I use are common to several applications, I will present a general statistical overview that will be drawn upon in later chapters. In comparing models to data, my primary concern is to estimate parameters and construct confidence intervals around the estimates, determine the goodness-of-fit of the model to the data, and compare alternative models and select the most appropriate one.
